Hardships continues under APC

Power generation is now off the execuive list, so every state should follow Abia and build their own power stations. To hell with this centralized model, which only exisits to fleece the south for the benefit of the North. Let every state take care of itself. No more yeye national grid that never works anyway

This country sef.

All these adjustments on a mere 4000MW? So, people outside this "big boy" Band A will experience more darkness or what?

For context:

This N226 naira per KPH is about 15 cents per kilowatt hour. The minimum wage in Nigeria is N30,000 monthly

North Dakota pays about 10 cents per kilowatt hour. Minimum wage in North Dakota is $7.25 per hour (N1.3 million naira monthly).

Texas pays about 15 cents per kilowatt hour. Minimum wage in Texas is $7.25 per hour (N1.3 million naira monthly).

Thanks for the stats. I don't think Tinubu has good economists around him. He's always in a hurry to remove subsidy, knowing fully well that Nigerians don't even earn enough to afford basic amenities.

You don't have mental capacity to read and understand. Band A electricity is purely for the rich.

Don't you people read at all?



https://nairametrics.com/2024/04/03/nerc-increase-electricity-tariffs-for-band-a-customers-to-n225-kwh/

There is something called a sense of humor... Ever heard of it?!!

The headline caption is very wrong.The increment is only met for band A category (people that use 24 hrs light).

Donaldoni:
What

All the same, the subsidy has become unsustainable as result of a myriad of factors. At least we all know everything has gone up of late.

You're very intelligent for paying attention to the little details in that article. A significant number of narcissistic posters and trolls here just rush in to post highly ignorant comments on NL (and other online platforms) laced with hate speech.

e be lyk say u just hear "narcissistic" grama today nd u bother check d meaning before u use am take post

The Tinubu people are fast running out of reasons to continue supporting their deadbeat 'president'

Only time will tell until they can't take it no more and begin to cry out

Is this regime's policy "tax the people to death”?

Renewed hope indeed

So only the rich will have 20 hours of electricity in Nigeria? Meanwhile $7.25 per hour is for the poor in the US, almost nobody earns that, the poorest people earn like $10 or more

Texas pays about 15 cents per kilowatt hour.

There is a very big disconnect between this government and the people. Increasing Tarrifs for poor people / low income earner is not a good one.

How much are people earning in the country. A lot of people don’t even have jobs now to talk about the old and vulnerable people in the society. Can someone tell baba Chicago that we are not in Chicago.

How much are they earning in Texas per hours? Omo our country don spoil jare

Who is the rich? Where does the rich lives? Let's start from there.

aieromon:


This group of persons will be unaffected by the tariff increase as you wrongly assume.

I feel for you. Who are in the band A group? Industrial estates and production lines, hospitals and public institutions.

What happens when there operational cost increases? The cost is spread across causing increase in prices of goods and services.

Now I ask? I bu ewụ?

With all these vain analysis, you miserably missed converting #30000 minimum wage to dollars while struggling to give us the ignoble raised rate in dollars to make the sure impact of no effects.
This won't fly

The way emilokan develop Lagos. He choke to the point that some people run back to them village.

OluwaBlessyn:

Subsidy is how the rulers give part of the nations resources to its people....no matter how small.........

But the government has successfully used "Subsidy is not sustainable" propaganda to make u the masses gullibly think and accept u don't deserve to enjoy any portion of ur country's wealth....

But they can buy bullet proof cars...fly abroad for healthcare, live on fat allowances,collect security vote which is embezzle the rest...

Subsidy on education...removed..
Health...removed...
Electricity..removed..
Crude oil products...removed .
Exchange rate...removed...

What exactly is masses getting back from this govement..despite increase in tax, low salary, and dangerously high cost of living....

This is a good news in a way if you can understand it. What the Electricity Regulatory Commission did was to stop the discos from charging customers excessively when the average hours of electricity they enjoy is less than 20hrs daily. Then increase the tariff for those who truly enjoy 20 hours of electricity to cover for the revenue loss from the downgraded customers.

Where it will have ripple effect is the production cost that will spread across the board

It is more important to convert the minimum wage in the US to naira so that people can understand it better

Paying for darkness and raising tariff for services you do not provide.
Funny people

AntiChristian:
Only Band A users tarrif is increased!

Band B-E still dey N66/KWh!

How many of Una dey band A that uses minimum of 20 hours electricity per day?

Abeg explain this Band A - E for me.

In all of these many people still don't have meters

Phcn go just nak u any amount

Chai this country eh.

broadman20:
Hmmmmm!


It's like this man just want to make sure he's supporters wil regret ever SUPPORTING him.


IS THIS HOW HE WANTS TO MAKE KWARA AND ONDO TO LOOK LIKE LAGOS!

HAHAHAHA!

🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😀

Tayorshd87:
Just to make nigeria better .


Go to overseas u pay more and enjoy what u use .

Nonsense

na same minimum wage,who giv u phone first

With what salary will an average Nigerian man or woman pay to afford electric power? Payment for kilowatt doesn't distinguish between band A and band whatever, because what you buy per kilowatt is same. Who is therefore deceiving who?

Just allow time pass by.

Na psychology.

U will start hearing that power is finishing fast even among the poor

Are they gonna raise wages to match all the outrageous bills too?

Thank God say na band Z electricity consumer we Dey😀

This Operation shege is only for Obidients. Agbadorians are exempted from the tariff hike
