The electricity Tariff hike by the Discos is just alarming.
N50,000 worth of token in June 2020 gave me 2183.7Kwh

Today, I went to the same place and bought the same N50,000 worth of token gave me 991.1Kwh.

Yet, the FG suspended the recent tariff and it will take effect this month end. Maybe N50,000 token will not give me more than 200Kwh.

Naija which way

Send them letter to come fold their wire..........

There is no difference between you all and the supposed 'people in government' that you are criticizing. That is just the bitter truth. Nigerians want a better society but at the same time they break traffic laws, litter the environment, sort in school, bypass meter etc. Those 'in govt' did not drop from the sky - they are a reflection of the society, so as you are pointing the finger, remember the remaining 4 are pointing right back at you.

Tot please shutup and dont derail...the thread is about the sudden hike in electricity bills and not how foolish Nigerians litter the roads and break traffic rules. Are you not feeling the hardship of the hike in bills or dont you pay bills??

Indispensable85:



Lol..... Just speak with any good electrician. There's a way they wire it cutting off the meter. You can use 2k for 6months. Lol.....

And when they randomly visit her place to check if the metre has been altered, hope you would be available to share the fine.

gratiaeo:
Na to bypass but don't allow them catch you

Even you?

Don't burst a vein, the truth is bitter. If you all like, continue bypassing meter and shouting corruption at the same time. Foolishness of the highest order.

imagine the huge difference. Now NLC will not talk, they will only talk when their last cash out finishes.

Can it power other electronic gadgets effectively?

yes ,it depends on your inverter capacity, if you have at least 3.5kva you can power your fridge,deep freezer and borehole ,not at the same time sha o, then all those gen inverter AC sef do well on solar

My sister,I pay close to N70 per kwh where I am too. If you but 100 units, it won't last you more than 5days. The way they designed those meters especially the recent meters from 2018, they suppose to utilize atleast 5kwh per 24hrs for extremely low consumption, which is a day. So if there is light for 30days non stop, that's 150kwh for 30 days. So you can do the maths.

The trick now is to purchase low energy consuming devices or appliances in your house.

southniyikaye:
See, my main aim is to leave this shithole..

Nothing works in this country anymore..
Popcorn kernel went from 8k per bag to 22k per bag..
How do you sale and make money? I have to abandon the business..
Now I started gas business, gas is now sold @450 per kg due to everyday increment from wholesalers..
My outlet is close to a gas station so my customers now prefer gas station to my outlet..
Every small scale business is being frustrated due to daily increase of price and commodity..
How do we survive in a country like this?
It's not as if we gain anything from the government, no dividends of democracy at all..
We struggle to make money yet pay bogus bills..

Am tired, I swear I am really tired..

The government is actually feeding off the people, Nigerian has a lot of misplaced priority, worst being government seeing the people as cash cows! They provide them nothing of value, but rather steal all the nations money and when they cannot steal it, go on to steal directly from the people in the form of taxes and levies.

Thailand relaxed taxes recently to next to nothing and lowered cost for things like transportation, petrol, etc., knowing this period is hard due to Covid-19 and the fact the citizens have endured a lot of hardship.

Here however the semi-illiterates in government only think of their own pockets, sadly a revolt is required, people CANNOT continue like this! It is just that some idiots will take the opportunity for revolt to loot, burn and kill others!!!

MejiLoyon:
How much for that solar my man. Fuel and NEPA wan kill me

Check my signature, I can be of help to your electricity problem

Solar is the future. Install it and direct any disco you subscribe with to come and carry their meter.....




A medium apartment can power his/her household with 1000/2000watts inverter
For those that desire AC much 2.5kva etc.

The higher the load the higher the cost...

GamalNasser:


So 50k can run an 8 kva gen for one month? ..abi na just 4 hour a day you go dey run am

It can't run a 3.5 KVA more than 4hrs daily

The way forward is to continue paying.
Hope you do get the value of your money.

Ask that formal head of state that died and his family were asked to pay 2million for nepa bills...

Dem don message Buhari too
Funny enuf, BMC have increased MANNABBQGRILL salary with 5k on top.... Dude now is very happy,always online... 24/7...

What to do.... ESN in the east, Amotekun in the west, Nigeria has never had it this bad before...

During Jona tenure, 10k can sustain me for a month, even including my daily drugs.... But now, i spend more than 75k in a month, i can't even keep track of expenses because prices go up everyday....


The economy is sick, and some people still defend this communist government.... Everything is going up... I used to buy 50g of TM(therapeutic dose) for my old man at the rate of 10 naira, now TM has skyrocketed to 2k per sachet, that is 200naira per tablet.... Na who do us ?


This economy is sick

Moferere:
Next level

The way to go is solar. Put solar powered pump in your borehole & batteries in your home. Though the initial cost is high but in the long run, you will be free from monthly bill and regular increment.

most banks in my town have gone solar ,if you see the way nepa officials dey always hiss anytime they pass the front of the bank, you go just dey laugh, nothing for them to collect as revenue from there. yet banks dey use electricity gan.

RayRay06677:
I paid for my solar system in 2015, cost was a little above a million naira, installed first quarter of 2016, using it till date, no change except some minimal maintenance. Highest I recharged my meter was 5k which I almost used for 8 months as per no light and I relegate them to third source after solar and generator.
My people, before I got my meter, I was paying 14k monthly in 2017, with solar, I only recharge 1k per month and it's never exhausted. My people, choose your battle wisely. I no more threaten them with litigation. We are on parallel lane. They avoid me and I avoid them. Even waiting for my battery to die off so I upgrade my system.
Me alone, they will fold up.

Hi, which company did you use for the solar installation?

Oga, if you walk into a well arranged house, the first thing that come to mind is to comport yourself. Nigerians ve endured untold hardship and ve given their all but our useless leaders ve frustrated every effort made and ensured that Nigerians remain in pain and poverty. We lack everything even basics. The people re becoming weary and that's why crime is on the rise. Government must do right by the people

Exactly

there is a thread on nairaland called the clearance sales.

if you visit that thread you will see that's homes are folding up in Nigeria as people selling off their household property especially from Lagos and Abuja relocating to God knows where.

everyone just clearing their entire household property and running away from the country.

my eyes is on benin republic. I heard life is cheaper there.

You clearly do not get my point. As long as we continue to encourage the wrong things in our day to day lives, we should not complain about corruption in government.
The government you are referring to are not aliens, they are the same Nigerians like you and me.

crayce dey really worry dem.
They stopped paper billing to reduce cost, now they don't even text my bill, - & when I checked, couldn't find the current bill, but they unleashed their ladder carriers on us

what should we expect when a cowman is ruling us.
