When some of us warned, we were tagged and called names. Now it has dawn on us all. Don't bother, this is just test run. When fully implemented we will know.

It will favour me and my family crew

We are still waiting for the favours

South Africa electricity that have collapsed for quite some time now. There electricity situation could be worst than Nigeria own currently

We want stable electricity, give us light yhen yehn yehn, then we will take care of ourselves.

Now they have given us the electricity rate, we have started compare and contrast..

How much do we spend on Owambe's religious activities compared to the new electricity tarrif?

We are not ready for stable electricity in Nigeria

This is the problem with all the successive oppressive govt Nigeria is unfortunate to have. They always compare the country and its citizens with no good indices that will make live easy for the common man bit always the bad.

This is what the present evil APC government is also doing. Minimum wage is not commensurate with any social service that is consuming it from the government.

helinues:

Headache dey worry you here again abi? Abeg defend the government and move on as usual.

Nigeria's leaders are moronic, dubious and destructive especially those in APC

I wasn't suprised, one bit, Tinubu owns interest in Eko distribution.

Better shut up and pay your electricity bills.. If you don't like it you know exactly what to do simple

And if you don't know Then endure

Elections have consequences

I'm using a prepaid meter, so far the power supply is regular, I don't mind.

defending rubbish...you did it for buhari, tinupoo own na akamu case.

Now run along🤡

AEDC staff dey collect 15k for bypass monthly, i witnessed it when i visited one estate in Lokogoma.

Bypass dey... Plug dey...

They just sit in their offices and keep churning out useless policies.

Cindypresh:


Very simple to defend incompetency...you did it for buhari, tinupoo own na akamu case.

Now run along🤡

There's a lot of irritating things like you online.

I wander why you lowlifes can't just write your own comment instead of crying about other people's comment.

If there's regular power supply, I don't mind the price cause I use a prepaid meter, it's my personal opinion, am not speaking for you or your family.

I hope the minister of power is seeing this. He is talking now

Expanding on the argument (using N1,300 = $1 conversion rate):

Electricity in North Dakota (US) is N130 per KWH, minimum wage is N1.3 million naira monthly

Electricity in Texas (US) is N195 per KWH, minimum wage is N1.3 million naira monthly

Electricity in Nigeria is N225 per KWH, minimum wage is N30,000 naira monthly

Lol everybody calm down, city boy is working tirelessly to make sure ribs are visible to the world.

Canada my dream country.

The electricity tariff increase is extremely unfortunate and disheartening at this time because this would cause so much pain to majority of Nigerians!

Honestly, this is the right time the Federal Government would need to "as a matter of urgency" "institutionalize the minimum wage" in Nigeria both at Public and Private sectors.

To achieve "a more robust and realistic minimum wage" for workers in Nigeria, the Government would need to extremely block all leakages like direct embezzlement and stealing of funds by all public office holders at all levels of Governance!

GOD bless Nigeria!

GOD bless United States of America!

H

It doesn't matter as far as Obidients are taught a lesson

APC is evil 😈

helinues:

It's really favouring you

Impressive... Since this is coming from AREWA, you will not hear pim from the bulaba crew. Nonsense supporters of evil government.

Lol...


I don kukuma comot for the grid fully ire oh....

Since I travelled I have learnt not to insult the Nigeria state no matter what rather the insult should be directed to the leaders especially APC.

They came and destroyed our naira. Before this 30k minimum wage could buy 4 bags of foreign rice @ 2014 not very long now 4 bags in 2024 =320k.

Minimum wage 30k = 4 bags of rice in 2014
4 bags of rice 2024= 320k
South African minimum wage = 312k

Meaning that the purchase power of naira in 2014 was even higher than south Africans m.wage


In 2013/2014 corpers posted for NYSC service that received 30k alawee came back with savings of 250k with it they started business. Some even travelled to Cotonou to start importing goods

But today 30k no even fit reach 6 days e don finish


It shall never be well with APC

I believe the cost of electricity is subsidized in those countries but still yet Nigeria state of affairs is nothing to write home about

It doesn't matter anymore because you're now being charged like someone who is on estimated billings. If your prepaid meter is useful, you wouldn't be placed on a unique higher tariff . Olodo

Most of you just jump on every thread....while most of you do not even belong in the cat A who are going to be paying the new tariff. I thought most of you do not enjoy the power, why complain....This shid be for people who enjoys 20hrs daily
