Easy to say. Makoko residents should go solar too.
You are too irrational with your suggestion.

Gang of thieves that upgraded my Estate from band C to band B while still load-shading us
Read up there, the difference between B and C is little. Go and recharge hugely before the tariff is removed from B to E

This idea of increasing electricity tariff every 6months is a no no for this administration,even though there has been relatively stable power in some areas but the pricing is not making people enjoy it.
I think this hike effect will be felt more by people that are not in band A cos they are already paying almost the cost reflective rate…if the government is not subsidizing fuel for any class of the economy I see no reason why electricity should be subsidized.
Subsidy needs to be completely removed from electricity and every household should be metered,many of us are consuming needless electricity cos we are paying less for it,if you like leave your AC on when you are going to work in the morning because you want your room to become a cold room by the time you return at night then you have to pay for it.some of us still using 100watt bulb in 2025,you have to pay for it without subsiidy
You are still supporting these people who are oppressing masses and taking everything away from them but they themselves are getting public services free of charge and they have stolen more than enough to pay for the services once they leave power.
5600 mega watts for about 250 million population and you think someone leaving AC on is the problem, who even leaves AC on 24/7?

It is so easy to churn out poverty inducing reforms when you have institutionally and corruptly insulated yourself from the negative consequences of those reforms...

This guy knows what needs to be done but there is politics.
If El Rufai was the minister of power, he’d have done it and stood by it. Good intention is not enough, you need the political clout to push your policies.
And what needs to be done is removing subsidies from band B to E, right? The one they removed from band A, what's the outcome? Band A no longer enjoy 20 hours anymore my dear friend.

Are you in anyway insinuating that we've not been paying for electricity?

The question from the publication is that can we say there's been a commensurate increase in power generation and distribution, in comparison to the increased tariff since the last one year.

They talk about lack of investment in the power sector, but nobody is asking them where they plugged the excess revenue they've generated since the last year of this current tariff.... remember the amount of power we've generated has remained static since Jonathan's era....so again, where have they been channelling the excess from the increased revenue to?

Nigeria's problem is not revenue generation. Those who lied to you that the government is poor or cannot cater to the needs of Nigerians because of our population are being economical with the truth. The country lacks proper accountability and they're too many gullible ones that are easily swayed or lied to.

Kill corruption and watch the country progress.

This is not about crying, this about deception. My area was moved to band A since it was introduced before we were moved back to band C like two months ago followed the order from the NERC, no wailing. I have got over 500 units (kwh) on my prepaid meter.

No . I am not insinuating anything. Government has been subsidizing electricity and cannot afford it so the subsidy will have to go and the consumer will have to pay. It is not complicated

Tariff is individual
You pay for what you use and the government is out only acting as a regulator to protect consumer rights an safety

This has nothing to do Nigeria's problem not being revenue generation that is irrelevant

Electricity is a business just like Telephony

From a commercial perspective there is no difference

Those who use the product should pay for what they use



People need to realize that electricity consumption is a commercial transaction between them and a business entity Just like MTN or Glo.

Once that realization sinks in perspectives will change

Let me explain something to you and hope you learn before it is too late

Social media is not an opportunity for you to talk to strangers without any filter

If you see opinions you disagree with you should learn to do so politely or ignore them

Being rude for no reason will attract unnecessary roadblocks and obstacles into your life

You will find yourself gathering with your hands all day long and in the evening a stranger will kick away everything you have gathered for 7 cycles

It is not everyone that you go chochocho and escape scot free
Hello

How far with the evidence
