The Federal Government says plans are ongoing to increase electricity tariffs “over the next few months”.

It, however, said that the planned increase needed to be balanced by subsidies for less-affluent electricity users.

Bloomberg quoted the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Energy, Olu Verheijen, as giving this hint at the Africa Heads of State Energy Summit in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, where Nigeria presented a $32 billion plan to expand electricity connections by 2030.

According to the presidential aide, Nigeria is trying to resolve the transition to a cost-efficient but cost-reflective tariff to attract private investors.

Tinubu affirms Nigeria’s commitment to improved electricity

She said: “One of the key challenges we’re looking to resolve over the next few months is transitioning to a cost-efficient but cost-reflective tariff.

“So the sector generates revenue required to attract private capital, while also protecting the poor and vulnerable.”

Last year, the federal government approved a threefold increase in electricity tariff for customers under the Band A classification.

The fresh move to raise tariffs comes amid mounting pressure from Nigeria’s debt-burdened electricity distribution companies for tariffs to be cost-reflective so they can improve their finances.

The minister for power is an evil man, alot of people are in band A but they not enjoy any 20 hours light. Why not introduce Nigerians to other source of electricity. I'm so happy that Ibadan people rejected the fraud

So what is the benefit of Nigeria, if electricity is taxed to the roof. I think it will reach a point where people will disconnect from the grid.

And some guys here are still praising Tinubu. Their lives are being mortgaged and they are praising and calling him to ride on. Last week is for telecoms tarrif. Today it's electricity. Tomorrow is not certain as well. May the life of people still supporting this government be like the hardship people are passing through. As a graduate, 200k is nothing again. You can't even plan your life cos when transport, telecoms, food, electricity, etc are removed. Nothing remains again. It shall never be well with these people o
