Oh right. I totally understand. About 200% increase is no joke at all and you also have to save for fuel.

I dey fine o, holding up as always. You?

Slytiger:
uou dey enjoy 20hours electricity before?

They used to take the light mostly between 6:00pm and 9:00pm daily. So light was normally available here throughout except the about 2-3 hours daily range interruption I mentioned above. However, things have recently changed as interruption periods are no longer predictably and stable which they claim is a National grid problem for now.

Slytiger:
I don't know about Europe but in North America, 25kv (277/480v or 347/600v) is more expensive than 14.4kv (110/120/240v).
However, replace elite citizen with industrial and commercial rate, then replace common man with residential rate.

All residential pay the the same rate depending on your city or state. City A may have a higher rate than City B. State X may have an higher rate than state Y. A true capitalist economy.
It seems the Nigerian version which I don't understand is based on how long people have light for in a day which doesn't make much sense to me.

Thanks for your feedback. Your last sentence is the reason for my question. I beleive that The 25kv is more costly cos its mainly industrial and has to supply power to heavy duty machines in contrast to 14kv meant for home use. But i think the 25/14 still supply EQUAL hours of POWER DAILY. In nig the Ekite have access to industrial lines in residential areas. while the poor grope in darkness

This country Nigeria never ceases to amuse me I have been in Cotonou Bénin Republic for 3 days now and I haven't witness any kind of power outage and we claimed to be their source of power but I'm in Lagos throughout last week I hardly witness 4 hours steady power supply without on and off....... Nigeria matter na real Super Stories indeed
