The problem of Nigeria started since 1999 , when government decided to subsidise everything , they would have allowed Nigerians pay the original price since , by now things would have been better
The problem of NIGERIA started the day an indiciplined Buhari overthrew a democratically elected govt of Shehu Shagari

Organised labour colluded with the government to betray Nigerians. It is difficult for prices to come down in Nigeria after going up. Labour was curiously hasty in suspending the strike when the government has not started the implementation of any of their bogus palliatives. The Next Level is going to be tough for both hailers and wailers. It's really unfortunate.

I don't understand fraudulent system of Nigeria government in everything. Electricity charges all over the world is not charge by units for prepaid meters instead it's charge by KW kilowatts per hour. In Ghana for example 1 kw per hour cost 0.30 pesos. So if customer buy units of 3.00 GHS, he will be expecting 10kilowats of electricity units.

For example that your fan consume 50 watts per hour it will take 20hours for your fan to consume 1 kilowatts, that means 10kw will last for 200 hour's.

I believe Disco don't want Nigerians to know exactly cost of 1 kilowatts. This way the customer can know is the units vendor cheats him or not.

When there's hike in electricity tariff it appears on cost of kilowatts starting from 1. But this country everything is fraud including a president that cannot address 200 millions people live on independent day celebration of of fairlure

I dunno but I was given the old number of units.
Re: Electricity Consumers Groan As DISCOs Delay Tariff Hike Reversal by Nobody: 2:03pm On Oct 01, 2020
If you want cheap power, you have to allow the DISCOS to charge what they want, instead o this current system where we produce power at 53 naira for a kwh, and then sell it at 28 nira per kwh, which mkes it difficult for GENCOS tto pay for gas to produce power.

And scrap NBET....whie we are at it

Yes, POWER WOULD BE EXPENSIVE....100 nair per kwh, but the doscs and gencos wuld have the cash to pay for improved equipment, improveed financiing, and more jobs.

And then competiton steps in, does its thing,, and prices crash

Accroding to the government, the markup priice for a kwh in Nigeria is 49.50 naiira

Government of the North by the North and for the north. Even before the hike, 1k for south is 27units, now its 18 units. The day south will breakout from Nigeria, northerners go suffer unless, they decides to wake up to reality.
