Nigeria is just something else.

See how other African countries are reacting

Not surprised for a shithole country, in 2026 even those paying cost reflective tarriffs are still shouting UP NEPA. To beat Nigeria politician mercilessly just dey hungry me.

BEDC workers currently dey on strike, and them get mind shutdown the electricity grid, no light in BEDC controlled states like Delta, Edo, Ekiti, and Ondo state.

Nigeria always having large numbers in negative things in the world 🌍

Poverty ✅
Insecurity ✅
Poor electricity ✅
Children out of school ✅
Poor education ✅
Poor health care ✅
Bad roads ✅
Unemployment ✅

Everything is absolutely poor. This is really bad. Druggie in aso rock said if he fails to give us electricity that we should vote him out and some fuuls are still supporting his re-election

And BEDC is owned by Fidelity Bank, which is in turn owned by Peter Obi. Peter Obi is notorious for poor workers' welfare. He sees workers as slaves as a result of his upbringing as a trader.

I go follow join you as you dey woz Naija politicians.

If I have only two bullets and Nigerian politician stand for my front next to giant python, I go fire the Naija politician two times.

THIS IS A HIGHLY DECEPTIVE, NONSENSICAL, SMEAR LIST.

THIS IS NOT HOW YOU MEASURE ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY PER COUNTRY.

YOU MEASURE IT BY PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION WITH ACCESS, NOT BY RAW POPULATION NUMBERS.

ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY PERCENTAGE FOR NIGERIA SITS AT EXACTLY 62%.

MEANING THAT ROUGHLY 160 MILLION NIGERIANS HAVE ELECTRICITY AND ARE CONNECTED TO THE GRID.

THE COUNTRIES WITH THE LOWEST ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY ARE COUNTRIES LIKE MALAWI, MALI, SUDAN, SIERRA LEONE, CONGO, SOMALIA, NIGER REPUBLIC, SOUTH SUDAN ETC, WITH ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY PERCENTAGE OF 9%, 11% , 12%, 14%, 25% ETC, ETC.

DESPITE BEING SMALL POPULATIONS OF 10 MILLION TO 35 MILLION ETC.

THESE ARE COUNTRIES WHERE YOU GO TO, AND THE ONLY PLACE YOU SEE LIGHT IS IN THEIR CAPITAL.

WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE GAIN FROM MANIPULATING FACTS TO SMEAR YOUR COUNTRY?

NOW SOMEBODY FROM SOUTH SUDAN OR MALAWI WITH ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY OF 11% WILL MOCK YOU AND SAY "YOU HAVE NO ELECTRICITY IN NIGERIA" DESPITE THE FACT THAT NIGERIA SUPPLIES ELECTRICITY TO 160 MILLION PEOPLE WHILE THEIR OWN COUNTRY SUPPLIES ELECTRICITY TO 11% OF THEIR 20 MILLION POPULATION.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DESPICABLE.

Here's the Official list of Countries by Access to Electricity.

NIGERIA IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING THE WORST.

Stop lying. Bedc is not owned by fidelity bank. Bedc is indebted to a consortium of banks. Unable to service its loans, the banks took over the company

You said:

ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY PERCENTAGE FOR NIGERIA SITS AT EXACTLY 62%

If only 62% of a population of 250 million has access to electricity, then that means only 150 million Nigerians have access to electricity while 100 million do not.

So according to the World Atlas figures you cited, Nigeria's situation is even worse than the World Bank figures posted here.

The World Bank says 88 million Nigerians lack access to electricity; while according to you, it is closer to 100 million.

Well, nothing a cost reflective tarrif can't fix.

And to those who say otherwise, we paid cost reflective tarrifs to the gsm companies. We have one of the largest gsm.subscriber base in Africa.

But most people are going to quote me to abuse me because most people believe that forcing the electricity sector to run at a loss means that it would work, only if we fought corruption

Anyway, expecting the usual response. Good night

Modified

And the first person has quoted me with the usual response.

All I will say is that prof Nnaji called for cost reflective tarrif. I agree with him. Abusing me means you are abusing a respected expert

Modified 2

Someone said that the discos and gencos should provide good service before we pay cost reflective tarrif, same way dstv and mtn did

1. DSTV and MTN were allowed to charge cost reflective tarrifs. That enabled them to attract investment and grow and improve.

Your discos and gencos were not allowed to charge cost reflective tarrifs...which meant they cannot attract investment, and grow, and as a result have never been in a position to improve electricity supply.

2. DISCOS run losses that total over 100 billion naira monthly. Expecting them to give you light is kind of expecting them to do water into wine things like jesus.

MODIFED

Below is the effect of what happens when discos are not allowed to collect cost reflective tarrifs from everyone.

IN May, discos made 208.15 billion naira. Electricity they were supposed to distribute was 328 billion naira.
IN June ,discos collected 191 billion naira. Electricity they were supposed to distribute cost 315 billion naira.

These are this year's results...and this is after band A , and with collection efficency of 80%

You can guess how much the loss would be at the end of the year. And now you know why they reject electricity. And government is refusing to pay them their subsidy money too, and even cut it self.

And y'all expect 24 hours light with those numbers? LOL. (And all this is publically available info, I did not make it up).

MODIFED

In 2025

Latest industry data seen by THISDAY showed that Gencos issued invoices totaling N3.16 trillion for electricity generated during the year. However, cumulative payments amounted to N1.24 trillion, while actual cash remittances stood at N1.17 trillion, reflecting a settlement rate of just 39.25 per cent.

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) data underscored a persistent structural gap in the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry (NESI), where revenues fall significantly short of invoiced amounts, largely due to the non-payment of tariff shortfalls by the federal government.

Out of the N1.92 trillion owed to Gencos in 2025, only N71.49 billion, or 3.7 per cent, was attributable to market shortfall linked to Distribution Companies (Discos). In contrast, N1.85 trillion, representing over 96 per cent of the outstanding amount, was due to unpaid subsidy obligations, highlighting the dominant role of government underfunding in the sector’s financial crisis.

SAUCE

And the above has been happening for decades...and that's why you do not have light. Government is not paying subsidies, because inept management of the economy and it's inability to make more money and corruption are limiting how it can afford to pay subsides...plus subsidy even if paid in full is not enough to meet the running costs...of the sector.

Kai!! Nigeria just dey lead for most negative metrics.. very shameful.

African leaders are shameless.

The world’s most populous nations in India and China are not even on the list.

Another inglorious trophy won for Nigeria by the fame builder Lagos. This is a bad omen for SMEs and macro industrial survival. Imagine the cost of alternate power source and the cost of alternate energy source to total cost of production

Meanwhile Tinubu is even denying his promise of providing electricity and still seeking re-election with all these abysmal records. God! Nigeria kept on stagnating in every indices that are basic for human existence. Terrible

Tinubu and his Renewed Disaster are seeking reelection. To do what exactly?

Ogbeni don come again with him carry talk. Did Nigerians not pay cost reflective tarriffs to telecoms companies? Did the Discos provided cost reflective tarriffs and Nigerians failed to pay? Are those paying cost reflective tarriffs, receiving cost reflective services? I can bet my left balls, that if Discos are ready to meter their customers, they are willing to pay cost reflective tarriffs.

Obasanjo is the problem of lack of electricity in Nigeria and he must be sanctioned

But this useless Tinubu said you should Not vote for him again if he didn't not solve electricity problem in his first tenure

If only 62% of a population of 250 million has access to electricity, then that means only 150 million Nigerians have access to electricity while 100 million do not.

The World Bank says 88 million Nigerians lack access to electricity; while according to you, it is closer to 100 million.

It doesn't actually matter, because even if 80% of Nigerians have access to electricity, and you USE THAT DISHONEST OP's FORMAT of posting raw numbers instead of percentage access, we could still be "the worst" because the remaining 20% could be over 50 million people!

AT 62%, NIGERIA SUPPLIES ELECTRICITY TO MORE PEOPLE THAN ANY COUNTRY IN AFRICA, AT 150 MILLION AND RISING.

GO AND ASK BURUNDI WITH 14 MILLION PEOPLE WHY THEIR ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS 11%.

GO AND ASK MALAWI WITH 22 MILLION PEOPLE WHY THEIR ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS 15%.

GO AND ASK SOUTH SUDAN WITH 13 MILLION PEOPLE WHY THEIR ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS 5%.

GO AND ASK SIERRA LEONE WITH 9 MILLION PEOPLE WHY THEIR ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS 35%.

GO AND ASK D.R. CONGO WITH 117 MILLION PEOPLE WHY THEIR ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS 22%.

GO AND ASK CHAD WITH 21 MILLION PEOPLE WHY THEIR ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS 12%.

THOSE ARE THE REAL FAILING COUNTRIES. NOT NIGERIA.

NIGERIA IS DOING FAR BETTER THAN THEM, AND MANY OTHERS, BY PROVIDING POWER TO 62% OF ITS 250 MILLION PEOPLE.

AFTERALL WE ARE ALL DEVELOPING COUNTRIES THAT GAINED INDEPENDENCE IN THE 1960s.

IT IS DISHONEST AND DECEPTIVE TO USE OUR HIGH POPULATION TO MAKE OUT THAT WE ARE "THE WORST", SIMPLY BY POSTING RAW NUMBERS INSTEAD OF PERCENTAGE OF POPULATION WITH ACCESS.

BECAUSE THAT IGNORES THE PROGRESS MADE BY EACH COUNTRY IN COVERING THEIR POPULATION, WHILE ALLOWING THE FAILING COUNTRIES TO EVADE SCRUTINY, SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT AS POPULATED AS NIGERIA.

YOU CAN EQUALLY USE OUR PROVIDING POWER TO 150 MILLION PEOPLE AS EVIDENCE THAT WE ARE "THE BEST".

SO TAKE YOUR NEGATIVE AGENDA AND FACE THE DOOR.

Most Nigerians are not paying cost reflective tarrifs to DISCOS

Cost reflective tarrifs are around what band A people pay, if not higher. Most nigerians pay way below that. Band A are about 20% of the customer base.

Be guided.

Most of you don't read around the issues we have with electricity, which is why many of you don't know what is going on...government and anti government people.

P.S

For the information of people who think that most Nigerians pay cost reflective tarrif, here is the below

• Band A Share: Roughly 15% of electricity consumers in Nigeria fall under Band A and pay full cost-reflective rates (ranging from ₦209 to ₦225/kWh depending on the Distribution Company).
• Bands B through E: The remaining 85% of active electricity consumers are in Bands B to E and still receive government-subsidized tariffs

Most Nigerian consumers do not pay cost reflective tarrifs for electrcity. Before 2024, it was all of nigerian consumers. As a result, the losses outweigh the profits made by band A coonsumers...and the sector has never had the profits and by extention the investment it needs to improve power.

That is the reason why you do not have light.

Abusing me doesn't change the harsh truth.

You are ignorant, and people like you end up being corporate slaves because you don't know how to run a business, or know how running one feels like. Why are Discos failing to migrate more customers to BAND A, if they can reliable provide cost reflective services? Why not make those bands not paying cost reflective tarriffs distasteful for it's users, so that they can migrate to better bands thereby having more customers paying cost reflective tarriffs? Ogbeni use that thing wey dem dey call brain na!!.

Nigerian use generator. Every home has one.

Thank you for your honesty. You're the first paid APC data boy I know who has publicly rejected the Giant of Africa nonsense.

You're absolutely right. All Sub Saharan African countries, including Africa's "giant" are underdeveloped and economically challenged 3rd world countries. They are all more or less on the same footing with the possible exception of South Africa.

But be that as it may, that still doesn't explain the sheer numbers when it comes to Nigerians living without electricity.

Nigeria with a population of 250 million has more people living without electricity than China and India.

Also, Singapore got it's independence in 1965. It has almost zero natural resources yet it has a higher GDP than Nigeria and has given 100% access to electricity for its population.

If you're honest, this should be a source of concern for you.
