The Kaduna Electricity Distribution Company has increased the tariff payable by customers on Band A feeders.

In a statement on Wednesday, the company’s Head of Corporate Communication, Abdulazeez Abdullahi, said the premium customers will now pay N209.5/kWh instead of N206.80/kWh.

In the statement titled, ‘Upward Review of Tariff for Band A Feeders’, Abdullahi disclosed that the new tariff became effective on July 1.

“Dear esteemed customers, the Management of Kaduna Electric informs the public of an upward review in the tariff of Band A feeders from N206.80/kWh to N209.5/kWh.

“The review is effective from 1st July 2024 and affects both prepaid and postpaid customers[./b]

[b]“Kaduna Electric assures customers on its Band A feeders of the continued availability of 20-24hrs supply daily as stipulated in the Service Based Tariff regime,” the statement read.

It clarified, [i]“The public should please note that the tariff for Bands B, C, D, and E remains unchanged.”

The PUNCH reports that the tariff hike is coming amid complaints from customers, including manufacturers as well as public and private institutions that their monthly electricity bills are grossly unaffordable.

Not too expensive

Everyone just have to cope with the regular increase in prices of goods and services in Nigeria.

Na wa oh for this country

everything is not well

Everybody just dey rule in his own domain, The court has stopped anything that got to do with the increments ofthis their st*p*d band

exactly what Nigerians deserve.

our silence culture will swallow us alive.

We are in a 5th world country where government lie and lie and lie yet everyone believed the pie brain that cooked up the band divisions which should never exist in the first place.
I am a law abiding tax payer yet I do not deserve 24 hours electricity unless I am in a certain band? Please make this make sense.

So those in Band B and C do not deserve full electricity or the government lacks the ability to supply and is just using this as an mask to cover their waywardness?

Please do not come here and tell me your gullible story about how others can not afford to pay. That one na I PASS MY NEIGHBOUR mentality.
We were all without Bands and the power supply was rubbish, now I am in Band A but I was without electricity for 2 whole weeks in June and the bill still came to everyone.

The government has succeeded in dividing Nigerians. from DIVIDE & RULE to DIVIDE & EXPLOIT.

Again? The untold hardships is too much! Political office holders wouldn’t feel it cuz they spend our money not their personal money...

If band A,B C,D E is not racism it is what?

Paying more for what is not reliable. What a country. 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️

Kenya thought they could impose anything on their citizens and get away with it,one day Nigerian govt. Will regret some of the multiple mistakes they're making today...

..and before you knows it. They will increase band b and c.

Segregation!

Even in Nigeria,we are still treated differently..
D poor remain or stay in your level band D-Z while the rich and thief politicians enjoy and stay in band A... what a country called Nigeria..

Smh, so the people that have managed to earn a living in this economy should be milked dry. Me on band A here haven't seen supply for more than 24hrs, no explanation no compensation, just gross corruption from all these power folks. Imagine single phase meter is now 121k and 3phase is 226k. Everyone is now a king unto themselves, moving anyhow they like.

Raise am .... RAISe Am ....... RAISE AM!!!!

They voted for him, they should enjoy the dividends of Tinubucracy

Terrible 😞

why should such band segregation even exist in the first place if not for the inadequacy they are trying to hide? If not for DIVIDE AND EXPLOIT tactics, why this?

Yola Electricity Distribution Company also notify of upward tariff review of Band A feeders from 206.80/kWh to 209.50/kWh.

Problems of living in Nigeria is too much. They will still distribute the wahala(increase) to all if us.

Very good. All of una go suffer

We pay about ₦245/kwh on IKEDC. I still don't understand how. Abeg who else is on band A on IKEDC?

It is so unfortunate that there are too many kids on Nairaland who can't read to understand.

Kaduna Disco increased tariff, not the entire country, and imagine their comments! SMH

It's a pity that Nigerians haven't realized yet they have to troop out en masse and beat up these fraudulent people who make up that inefficient company called DISCO, wherever they are found! Nigerians are too docile; gullible lots!
