Sadly, PHCN also needs the money from the bills to make improvements so that you can have light 24/7.
All the money they've been collecting what have they been able to do with it?

And because they need money to give light 24/7 doesn't give them the right to rip people off when they don't give people light, now that's fraud.

And what is the penalty for PHCN? Distributing bills without bringing power? Sometimes, I ask myself what kind of country we live in.

I'm not saying beating up the PHCN official is right, but them distributing bills and not even giving power is senseless. If you sue them, the judge will dismiss the case.

I believe by the time more PHCN staff get assaulted, they'd know not to distribute bills when they didn't give power supply.
Distributing bills is even fair enough. It is when they come to disconnect that the real wahala is

That PHCN company is one of the most corrupt establishment in Nigeria...they will refuse to install a prepaid meter for you and in a month after seeing light for 7days,they then give you a bill of 35k... undecided

the beating is very much welcome. i pay an average of N6,500 every month and burn N3,000 worth of fuel for light every week. why wouldn't i beat up a nepa official if i catch him in my compound with bills to distribute? and if it's a she, i'd spank her and press her breasts.. angry

Truth is, if they don't bring light, they have no right to even distribute bills in the first place.

The bills the distribute is fraudulent. How can one pay for something he didn't use? Mind you, I'm sure you know the current charge is most times estimated and if you pay half, they add it to your net arrears.

Now that's just so wrong.

If you owned, let's say a clothing business....and I came, took some lengths of cloth , and then refused to pay....and the same thing happened with most of your customers....you won't be able to buy new stock, and you won't be able to make a profit so that you can live well.

So keep laughing. The more you refuse to pay your power bills...the more your darkness will increase.

We need trillions of naira to see light 24/7. Maybe you can help out...since you seem to have the money?

So Obasanjo, Jonathan and Buhari told you the reason why Nigeria doesn't have stable power supply is because it citizens don't pay bill?

Do you know trillions of naira that has been signed as MOU for Electricity since the democratic era?

In the area served by my DISCO(about 5 states)....70% of people do not pay light bills.

The reason why there is no improvement is because the minority of Nigerians are paying for the majority that do not pay light.

And the money itself is not enough....we need far more than that to improve generating capacity, replace the worn out transmission system, and expand power supply to all.

Better pay your bills.

P.S: As a student, I lived in private accommodation for the last 2 years of my studies. The power bill for the place was supposed to be shared equally by all of us...but most refused to pay...and at the end of the day it was me plus three others that paid power bills for the whole building.(And we were not very rich students BTW.).

How will power improve if we cannot pay for it? Or you people want your government to take another loan for power...which your grandchildren will be paying back with interest?

That has been the problem long before 1999.

And now that it is private companies that have taken over....we have to pay.

Plus....all the money spent has just gotten us up to 6000MW. We need 20000MW and more before things can improve. And now that it is privatization era....we have to pay for the thing.

Back when GSM first came out....we all paid high bills for very poor service at the time (That was when SIM cards cost 5000 naira...and the service was poor anyways). But we all paid.....and the GSM companies had the money to improve services.

If we all paid our bills...we probably would see the same in the power sector.

And anyway.....assaulting anyone is still a crime.

Indeed one big reason why the DISCOS, GENCOS and TCN cannot guarantee light is because most Nigerians do not pay their light bills at all.

Even the prepaid meter that was supposed to end pay dodgers....people bypass them so that they can get free light.

And as a result...there is no money to buy new equipment, no money to upgrade existing equipment, and no money to even expand the power supply.

Thanks to privatisation, which most Nigerians did not oppose...the onus is even more on us to pay for our light. We cannot refuse to pay for light because they have not given us light at all. That means that there would be no money not only for power infrastructure improvement...but also no money for staff salaries too. And DISCO/GENCO workers are Nigerians like you...who also have bills to pay, and lives to maintain.

We may look at this man who beat up DISCO staff as a hero. We may even encourage more people to go ahead and commit acts of violence against DISCO staff....but remember....the reason why we do not have power is because we refuse to pay our bills.

Am sure the man who beat up the staff would complain if his working place did not give him his salary. He would complain that it prevents him from being an effective worker.Why then do we insist on making power supply inefficient for all....by refusing to pay our bills.

Sorry.....but Ozoigbo Ikenna and people like him ARE the reason why you Nigerian people do not have light.

Please...pay your bills. OK?


You are wrong man. I do not give money to glo to build mast before I get network to make calls and you do not have to pay men to produce to sell to you, otherwise it means borrowing to pay later.

How do you know Mr Ikenna don't pay his bills? I've seen PHCN bring light for about 10 hours in just a month then bring 8000 Naira bill for people to pay, you expect people to smile about that? Come on. What's wrong is wrong and what's right is right.

Back when all them GSM companies came out....we were paying outrageous prices for poor services.

But because we paid our GSM bills...the companies had the money to improve services....including building of masts all over the place (Or do you think GLO gets money from govt..)

It is the same for power. And the reason why we do not have light is because people like Mr Ozoigbo Ikenna refuse to pay their bills. And sadly they are in the majority.

Let me guess. The post of a grade 4 kid.
Ask around or just Google how many MULTI-trillions of Nigeria has been allocated to NEPA, IKEDC and other power generating companies.

After 56 years, a major crudeoil producing country is still importing fuel, diesel products. Empower your sense.

Actually I work in the human services field....and I am not a PHCN staff (I even had an issue with them 18 months ago over prepaid meter vs estimated bill....and ended up with estimated bill much to my annoyance.).

I am merely making the point that if we want improved services...we have to pay our power bills. (And by the way, that includes some Govt agencies and parastatals).

Or we beg PMB to go to the World bank and take a loan for....oh well....N5 trillion naira , just for power sector.Guess who pays the debt back?

We smiled when GSM companies were bringing us outrageous bills for poor services back in 2003.

But we kept on paying their price...and they had the money to improve services, add new services, and also bring down prices eventually.(SIM cards used to cost N5000.).
