I buy 13 units for 1k here in Enugu. A unit is 71 naira

Too bad for you guys

It is like N35/unit here in Lagos

mr Tinubu, this is not how to run a government. you have finally approached the breaking point of the masses and the political arena.

you met a massively depressive and recessive economy and the few political maneuvering attempted by your regime has further depressed us all but we sacrifice and held our temper to give your team the opportunity to surgically correct the anomaly in the system, albeit, you are stretching your luck too far sir, Mr. gcfr.

what you should do now is to allow us breathe a sigh of relief first, with the introduction of cng into the market, at a market price of 100 naira per liter and then you can bring around anti- people and pro- suffering policy on electricity to devalue us more.

this nonsense new electricity tariff should be suspended indefinitely until we have seen succor and alternative to the high cost of petrol in cng.

Another handicap re ooooo

Every year precisely July there will be increase in electricity tariffs. This criminality must stop.

Flets:
Before we all get carried away with the media propaganda, here are the summary of Tinubu's government to date:

1. Fuel subsidy is removed and you will buy fuel for 500 to 900naira per liter (depending on the exchange rate). The savings will be looted like that of kerosene and diesel. There will be no commensurate succor/ palliative for your suffering. Instead of going after the subsidy thieves and stopping the smuggling across boarders, they have transferred the responsibility to the helpless Nigerian people.

2. Naira has been devalued (though they call it floating). The FG has handed over the exchange to the market forces where speculators and banks are king. Naira continues to fall in the I/E and parallel market. Anybody who tells you Naira will appreciate is a joker, for a corrupt country like ours, the banks and speculators are the new cabal and will drive the rates how they deem fit. Don’t believe…. Just observe. What most don’t get now is that CBN now has no obligation to provide FX at a particular rate to the market, as such the new FG players can access FX from CBN without noise.

3. FG funding for tertiary education has been removed. Students will pay upwards of 400K tuition fee starting next session. A lot of students will drop out and cannot complete their education anymore. The so-called student loan will be almost impossible for an average student without connection to access. Guess what happens to the savings from this funding…. To be looted by the same people who have impoverished the nation.

4. Electricity tariff have been increased (without increased production) and will take effect from July 1st. This is a death knell to small and medium scale businesses. You are now stuck between the devil (PMS at 550naira per liter) and the blue sea (extra expensive electricity tariff).

5. All the FG has done so far is abandon almost all responsibilities it has over the people through the bills being signed since May 29. All Tinubu has done is to make available funds to be shared by him and his goons at the expense of the people. Not a single bill or action aimed at ameliorating the suffering of the already downcast Nigerian people rather adding to the pain in the guise of elitist policies

6. Guess what…. None of these policies have any impact on the political class and they have not made a single sacrifice. Same old political criminals are back in power, Gbaja, Akume, Asari Dokubo etc and you expect any real change apart from increased suffering?. How do you expect Tinubu to pay back the these same criminals who supported him into power?

Nigerians…. Suffer no dey tire una?

You are a wise man.

I doubt people in any other nation waste energy as much as our people here. This has always been my point. Over fifty percent of power distributed is wasted by the final users. Mostly because it is cheap. On my street, there is a house that leaves their borehole on throughout the night. You wake up to go out in the morning, and the whole ground is wet as if it rained. It disgusts me so much.

The same thing happens at the house behind my own. I concluded it is all because of cheap electricity. And a close pal of mine was telling me that you dare not leave anything on that was not in use, because it adds to your bill. He lives in Europe.

Too much energy gets wasted here. It's a huge financial hole.

Lol no breathing space for the poor...

You're a supporter of Tinubu govt so enjoy it

Why all Tinubu policies so far are anti masses at the detriment of the poor. Fuel subsidy removal, increase in electricity tarrif it's the poor masses that suffers it. When Jonathan wanted to remove subsidy he provided Federal mass assisted Buses to cursion the effect of subsidy and yet there where heavy protest by the same cabals that are now government. Tell me any palliative made available to curtion the effect of subsidy in this regime. Nigeria has many untold problems one among many is tribalism. For example if it has been another person from another tribe, let's say Igbo that removed subsidy just like that hell would have been let loose by now.

He is a yoruba Muslim☪️️

Sorry for Alamajiri

Angelfrost:


Tell yourself the truth... The wastage of our scarce resources is from the leadership not exactly the citizens!!!

Till date, have you heard anything about cutting government expenditure across the three arms of government??!

I agree with you on that one OBJ caused it because of is 3rd term ambition right now does dudes can’t agree for a pay cut even the president can’t reduce their salaries or he’ll face impeachment. What about the governors too those ones are worst .
It’s not like I like what’s happening but removing subsidies on some things like electricity and education will automatically fixes the rot in the system . One step at a time we can’t achieve everything all at once . Nigerians will start to wake up when we start paying for things even the government will be scared of the people just like in developed countries they always make reference to their heavy taxes when their government is misbehaving and every parastatals are working because you know people are paying for it no time for lapses .

yemmit90:


Seem they've silently increased the price even before July 1st because i bought just 26 units for 2k about 10 days ago.

That is about #77 per unit.

You're right. A staff member of NEPA told me plainly that they increased the tariff secretly. This was even b4 the 2023 elections. I bought 1kW for #77 even b4 the elections. Many consumers don't know coz they don't bother to do the calculation. The Nigerian govt is quite dubious.

Omo you just spoke my mind. Thank you for the precise, accurate and excellent speech... 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
