We Are Going To Review Electricity Tariff For Band B And C Customers – FG by ExAngel007(op): 4:55pm On Feb 27, 2025
The Federal Government has announced plans to review electricity tariffs for customers outside the Band-A category.

The proposed hike aims to bring tariffs for other customer categories closer to the N206/kW paid by Band-A customers.

Speaking at the public presentation of the National Integrated Electricity Policy (NIEP) and Nigeria Integrated Resource Plan (NIRP) in Abuja, the Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, stated that the government can no longer sustain the N3 trillion subsidy on the power sector.

Adelabu emphasized that with power generation and distribution increasing by about 35% in 2024, ensuring the commercial sustainability of the industry is crucial for continued growth.

‘We will look at the tariff again. I am not saying that we’re going to increase the tariff before I am misquoted.

We are going to look at it and see how we can improve upon our modest achievement of last year, not only to ensure that we grow the sector that we need but also to ensure that we can invest more in revamping all these dilapidated infrastructures.”

The migration to Band A should have been faster, but we found out that the DisCos refuse to invest. They have refused to invest in this sector.

A lot of investment is required for us to achieve an accelerated migration of lower-band customers into Band A. It is taking a lot of time.” he said

If you have spare cash in your account and you are a prepaid user under band b, c, d or e. Better buy tokens in bulk and load before they increase the tariff.

I am in band c under abapower and the tariff is 180 naira per kwh. It was 70 naira per kwh as at December last year.

Why is this government removing all the subsidies Nigerians enjoy? These people are practically worsening poverty because they are not creating wealth. APC has come to steal, kill and destroy.

Putting Yoruba politicians in power is the worst thing you can do as a nation, they lack empathy and are only interested in extorting the people, from Fashola to this man they have hiked electricity fees over 7 times without any single improvement in electricity supply or production, the claim there is a subsidy in power sector which non of them can explain ,who is subsidizing who , how are their cronies in the power sector able to buy many jets despite their claims they are not making money?

If you are on Band A, you are better off installing solar. You recoup your money in 2 years and your electricity is free thereafter. You are also immune from future tarrif hikes.

And after buying in bulk you will never have need to buy again as it won't get exhausted? undecided
