Do you believe NEPA staff will just come and install metre for you Free of Charge just because it is said to be free on the news?

All these are still nonesense. We don't need all these. Let the government do true privatizion of the sector and not all these nonesense

I can't imagine government buying phones for us because we want to talk. No

As long as government doesn't buy phone for anybody,let everyone buy their metres themselves. Buying prepaid metres for customers is another avenue for stealing and nothing else.

Remove all government burecreacy and let true private individuals invest in the sector and fix prices themselves and see how the sector will grow not these nonesense we are doing and deceiving ourselves

Lolz, very soon you will tell them not to do anything at all.

Lol. 21 billion for band where 98% of it's customer population are already metered. Taking BEDC for example, 95% of her band A customers are MD(Maximum Demand) customers and are all metered (either whole current or CT-operated meters).

You're not making sense. How many people can afford the prepaid meters at the current price? People have been agitating that government should distribute prepaid meters free of charge so that estimated billings could stop, now govt is planning to do it and you're still blaming govt, who do you people like this, are you okay at all?

The people they want to give free prepaid are those on Band A. I guess you didn't read it that well so they are people that can afford to buy prepaid metres. Infact most of them before now get prepaid metres sef.

As much as I am not a Fan of this government,I am just saying the truth. Let all subsidies in the Power sector be removed for it to truly grow. All these won't make the sector grow

Do the government give you free phones ? Do they recharge data or airtime for you?

Let the government hands off totally and get new investors who will invest in infrastructure and all sorts in the sector and fix pricing themselves then we will have light

Because no matter what they fix as charges,it can't be as expensive as running fuel 247 all around the clock

Other smaller African countries get light, it is a monster here because our government are so greedy and not ready to do the right thing

I hope we get our own prepaid meter this time free of charge

So 21 billion could solve prepaid meter issues nationwide and yet they used 21 billion to renovate Shettima's house
It's just for some people on Band A alone.

This is an avenue to embezzle funds. Is this not the same scam Buhari did during his tenure by procuring post-paid metres that are now obsolete ?
This move is dead on arrival....
