A recent increase in electricity tariff was introduced. If you don't manage your consumption, prepare to spend alot.

Here are some ways to manage consumption, which could lower your potential bills.

1. Get rid of those incandescent bulbs of 60 watts, 100 watts. Buy energy saving bulbs of 5 watts, 10 watts

2. Be vigilante when pumping water so you off the pump as soon as the tank is full or install float switch.

3. Your fridge must not be on 24 hours. If you know how well your fridge can retail coldness, you can use your discretion to know when to put it off and on.

4. Standing fans consume less power than AC. You can sleep well with standing fans and not be bothered about high bills.

5. Don't use electric stove(hot plates. Use your gas to cook.

Additional tip: Buy new model appliances with inbuilt inverter. Fridge and AC with inbuilt inverter consume less energy.

Put off your light before heading out, especially if you are using a shared meter, be a responsible adult

Anyone that fails to adjust or manage consumption will pay the ultimate price to the DISCOs.

If meat is expensive and fish is a better alternative, going to buy fish means glorifying bad policies?

That fridge part cannot work effectively in Nigeria cos you can never guarantee to have steady power to turn off your refrigerator. Not at this times of grid collapse

Standing fans consume less than ceiling fans sef.
Electric stoves are the biggest consumers. Powerful than pumping machine.
Anyone running away from gas but using electric stove with metre wey dey use card is doing bad maths. Cos the way that stove go drink the units, using petrol & gas to cook no go cost reach am.
Meanwhile just as the ex power minister said, some people like leaving bulbs or electric gadgets on when they aren't in use. Na werey symptoms o!
Use iron, washing machine, water pumping machine, etc sparingly.
