I think honey moon is over for Mr. PMB it is time to face reality, leave the tariff or face mass wrath... Long overdue since subsidy of 2012...

No to increment, as if the light is even regular. Nonsense

Smh! Buhari moving from one's work to another. .. Not accopmplishing any.

Soon he will take ownership of that too...

Just saying

Let them keep spitting fire where were they when plans were made to increase tariffs? Now now dia eye open? yeye people.

They increase kerosene, increase electricity cost, charge 50naira to do a transaction in bank, petrol is #110-120 naira throughout Nigeria except in Abuja and lagos, Dollar is 320 naira. Please what did the common man do to this government to deserve this sort of evil punishment beffaling us?

NLC & TUC have lost it a long time ago

The hike in the tariff is the way to go to make PHCN functional. The current PHCN is hiding under the current fixed monthly maintenance charges to be ineptude. The abolition of these charges will make PHCN active in the technical areas such as metering , improved supplies and so on. I believe the TUC and other organised labour are being bribed to go on strike here. If the increments are allowed, consumers will only pay for what is consumed.

Dullard Administration.APC and PMB are scam.We campained against this non directional dullard government yet their e-rats here in this forum keep dancing to their pay masters.Happy that even them can now see that they have made mistake in voting in a scammer.No electricity,yet somebody in his right sense is dreaming of increasing electricity tarrif.

conversant:
since Oshiomole left,NLC has been a scam.Bt the matter of electricity hike is rediculouse and uncalled for,with the current economic recession.

What has oshiomole done before dan to come out and display,only for him to be bribed and he will keep his mouth shut and leave d masses to suffer whatever he was fighting for. Or which of his fight has ever been fruitful?

INTROVERT:
NLC is asleep

NLC has been in coma for a while now and has refused to wake up even after administering CPR & AED on it.

Nlc should keep its opinions to itself as it does not speak for the masses.
This is another of their drain pipe to gain popularity for its new executives.
Frm the days to oshomole till 2day it remains a semi political party where they even fight over union elections.
A scam of pretence by a body to show it cares.
Mr peter esele has joined oshomole in official politics to contest edo 2016.

The majority of nigerians as reflected in 2015 election remain resolute,confident and sure of Pmb policies, intentions for nigeria which brought him to power

so Nigerians voted for Buhari so that he can increase electricity tarrif? Can u hear yourself? Nigerians are not Zombies they voted Buhari because they wanted good governance, subsidy in petroleum and kerosine has been removed without people talking...dis is due to low price of oil world wide not because people are blinded by love with the APC or Buhari. It took GEJ 2 years to go out of favour with Nigerians believe me it will take buhari far less time before his ardent supporters will hang him in the sun to dry out. PDP should not think this will be to their advantage because the rage that will follow will totally consume them

omohayek:
As much as many of you may not like to hear it, the tariff increases are absolutely necessary if Nigeria is to ever enjoy reliable power generation. It costs money to import power-generating equipment and foreign expertise, it costs money to buy fuel, and it costs money to improve the power distribution infrastructure. The discos were already failing to cover their costs before the real value of the Naira started to weaken, which is why they couldn't reliably distribute even the meager 4,500MW that the gencos made available. Unless they can cover their costs and make a profit, why even bother staying in business?

Instead of the NLC complaining about the tariff increases, they'd be better off demanding for metered billing instead. No sensible person disputes that people should only be charged for the power they have actually received.

They are fooling their-self. Service charge has been removed, and that is good. As far as power is been supply i will pay. i dont need a u.nion that can not help themselves to help me

I Feel the FG should have a rethink on this. This is not right way increase revenue generation.

Kulas:

Do you how much It cost the current PGN ( Propaganda Government of Nigeria) to generate the darkness Nigerians are enjoying or u think it is free or cheap?

The body language that fixed the power sector which increased the so called power output In Nigeria some months ago which I read about here on NL must have been siphoned again by GEJ and Dasuki ft Methu.

It takes a whole lot of $bn's to generate darkness in Nigeria which is ever constant than the electricity itself so the increament In tariffs Is appropriate so as to keep the darkness constant.

u dont get it do u? Gej and pmb are different, gej came via circumstances and played the oppressed card nt cos he was loved.
Pmb is trusted cos of his integrity, i tell u he got there cos of integrity, we who voted him, our heart are at rest cos we knw the treasury is in good hands.
No more sharing of funds.
Their is no delibrate policy to drain masses and fund rich.

You are completely wrong.


Back to the topic:


Buhari has failed:

1. Economically.

2. Socially.

3. In Governance.

4. In policy making.


Etc.


Only Aisha rice eating zombies can say otherwise.



I repeat:



Buhari is a big failure both home and abroad.

bamironautos:
i will not be surprised that u are a product of a broken home and a disturbed upbringing. Its so sad that Nairaland n cheap internet has giv rise to unguided comments by pipo who hide behind d keyboard to sprew senseless comments.

I will not cal u a failure bcs ur comment has already depicted u as one.

My own wahala na this estimated billings and the fix charge.

Do not increase the tariff without FIRST giving every Nigerian prepaid meters...

Mr man, most Nigerians are still using post paid meters that are never read by discos

They can't do it. They can't even try it.

I do not really have any problems with the hike as long as they provide Nigerians with the prepaid metres. Some have it and some don't,that's apartheid.

People keep throwing out the due process line without explaining how due process was not followed. To my understanding due process was followed. They can't stop the tariff increase. Private businesses have the right to change prices. All the NLC can do is sue the DISCOS. Why are they threatening the government?

omohayek:

So people really think that PHCN, DISCO or what so ever the call them dont make profit. Since I am of adult age in Nigeria, I have never seen where NEPA, PHCN, DISCO willingly come to fix faulty transformers/electric lines or poles. It is the people who will contribute money to buy transformers, poles and cables. Yet people pay bills. take for example, a typical city of about 500,000 residents, if only 50,000 pay a average bill of 1000 naira a month, that is will amount to, 50m. in one month, in a year that will be about 600m. if we have about 10 cities in Nigeria with only 50,000 (fifty thousand) consumers paying electricity bill, then we are talking about 6billion in 1 year. This is excluding industrial users/consumers, whose bills run into tens of thousand of naira. There spend little or nothing in maintaining the distribution infrastructure, as individual consumer are made to contribute money to fix transformers, electric cables or poles.
So if you do the maths for the whole nation, a lot of money is been generated by this so call NEPA, PHCN, DISCO- in the neighbourhood of tens if not hundreds of billions every year. What do they do with the income. They always make people feel they dont generate any money.

Increasing the tarrif does not solve the problem. They have to check the corruption in that sector first.

Again if the companies can not meet up with the supply or generation because of the value of Naira that is depreciating, how then do you think the poor populace will meet up with paying an increased tarrif. Salaries are not been increased, the reduced value of the Naira is affecting every one, not only the govt.

the society is try to survival without no light them few people dat enjoy d light want to increase d bill for their selfish instetest nah only God go save dis country from dis suituation

some one should help me awt wit a reply to dis msg. God! This baby is cute nd plump...i desire to have her kind wen d time comes
