How much is ₦178k per month as long as minimum wage is ₦1.3m per month? Once you increase tarriff, just increase minimum wage, then we are good to go. |

Why are you guys always comparing US with Nigeria, to support your evil plans data from the US will be used. Have you compared the minimum wage in US too, what is the average Nigerian purchasing power, must you tax and increase everything? This country never sees to amaze me 1 Like |

mrvitalis:Nigerians don't speak or understand the language you are speaking....... People who are charged estimated bill of 3k a month are still owing, yet they want 24/7 power.... If I had a power distribution company, I won't supply power to customers who don't pay. The systems we compare Nigeria to are systems where people pay their bills. The average Nigerian is criminal minded, he looks for every avenue to jump, this is why they they feel that what ever the government is doing, good or bad is criminal. Provide every good thing for a Nigerian and he will think the worst. I am paying the school fees of the kids of an old grade school friend of mind, the wife spoke to me about opening a supermarket for her, discussed with the dude he said "no problem" 2 years down the line, I am back in the country and I hear people saying dude said I am sleeping with his wife, else why would I spend 5m opening a supermarket for her, he couldn't think that I was just a man with a good heart, his only thought was the worst,sleeping with his wife. I have given up on these folks. 1 Like |

It only cost me 100 cedis a month to have a constant 24 hours light here in Ghana And it will cost me 250 cedis a month if I include my AC, Refrigerator and Tv set. So with the exchange rate in the black market 100 cedis is =10,000 naira While 250 cedis is =25,0000 naira, I only get to know that electricity cost so much when I visited Nigeria unlike here in Ghana, Nepa will bill 20k a month for a light that hardly goes for 10 hours a day. There’s no big deal in having 24 hours light, just that it will not favour the government. Even an uncompleted houses here in Ghana with no development in the area enjoy 24 hours light. 1 Like |

Whether you're in America or Nigeria, power generation no be beans! It has nothing to do with wages or what you earn. The cost to generate electricity will always dictate what you pay. For example, electricity is way cheaper in Alabama than California because California suffers from excessive drought and over population. It does not matter if people in the USA are spending less than $200 per month on 24/7 electricity, if the cost to generate same electricity is much higher in Nigeria then Nigerians will naturally pay more. So rather than dream of impossibilities such as 1 million minimum wage, the discussion should be how can we make electricity generation cheaper in Nigeria. |

My own questions are? 1.a- Is the power supplied by United State of America? b- If No, why do you need need to calculate our tariffs based on the dollar rate? c- if yes, abeg tell us which channel they are supplying us with power because the last time i checked, kainji and other power dams/plants/Stations are not situated in The USA socialmediaman: |

A paid urchiiinn whose moniker registered on Nairaland only 10 months ago but has 5,000 posts already wants to pretend that they are successful. Can a busy and successful person find time to make 15 posts a day on Nairaland? Of course they can when posting on Nairaland is how they make their money. Lollz Jackasses Everywhere!

aieromon: Are you trying to justify nonsense?? Is petrol price supposed to be that high to raise the price of power using generator?? The little comforts that the masses were hitherto enjoying have been snatched away by this evil government. Instead of fighting corruption they removed subsidy and caused mega inflation without corresponding increase in salary both in public and private sectors. Meanwhile they have made more money available to themselves for sharing and looting. E no go beta for them 1 Like |

Deep freezer disconnected. 1 unit 1hp Ac used at night ie my bedroom. 2 days if just fans are used with 1 fridge. 2 tvs. Kids will be back from uni in 2 days, so possibly I will have to budget 15-20k daily as they will use their room acs, turn on their tvs, living room Ac too. Afterall after suffering in school hostel heat, the few days they will be around, one cannot deprive them the comfort of comming home. |

slimfit1: you dont get it bro the oyinbo people who are actually running Nigeria from European/US embassies dont care about creating jobs for Nigerians , what they care about is depopulation. Its the same people killing all farmers so food price will go up that are raising the price of electricity and essentials so that people can go and die quickly , am very certain they are the same oyinbo that made the concoction for sniper available . They dont give a used toilet roll about jobs, they want all the middle class and poor people all over the world to die off quickly especially Africans , THAT IS WHY THEY ROLLED OUT THE C19 POISON JAB and you talking about jobs They dont give a biscuit about economy or jobs , they want everybody to vacate the planet, do you get it now. Do you think its just a coincidence that all the terrorists are civil servants and they are mainly killing farmers as food prices goes up too. you people have no idea how much the oyinbo running Nigeria hate black people. The year before covid, they were busy increasing the number of burial ground all over the country , so that people were complaining about location of some of the proposed burial ground, and you think they care about economy or jobs. Better know thy enemy, so that you not dreaming whilst in grave danger |
