The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, on Wednesday, approved an increase in electricity tariff for customers under the Band A classification.

The Vice Chairman, NERC, Musliu Oseni, said the increase will see the customers paying N225 kilowatt per hour (KW/h) from the current N66.

PUNCH Online notes that customers under Band A are those who enjoy 20-24 hours of electricity supply daily while those in Band B are subscribers who enjoy 16 to 20 hours. Those in Band C enjoy 12 to 16 hours daily.

Also, Band D subscribers are beneficiaries of eight to 12 hours daily and Band E subscribers only enjoy four to eight hours of electricity consumption everyday.

Speaking at a press conference in Abuja, Oseni said customers in Band A represent a 15 per cent of the 12 million electricity customers in the country which is about 1.8 million subscribers.

He added that the review will not affect customers on the other bands.
Citing sources, Bloomberg had on Tuesday reported that power companies will be allowed to raise electricity prices to N200 ($0.15) per KW/h from N68 for urban consumers.

It quoted people in the presidency with knowledge of the matter saying this was in a bid to attract new investment and slash about $2.3 billion spent to cap tariffs.

In this report, PUNCH Online highlights the Lagos State subscribers of the Band A tariff plan who are beneficiaries of the 20 to 24 hours of electricity daily consumption in a document prepared by Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company.

Hmmm.. ok Una go explain tired.. we still no go gree

Even if you're "enjoying" just 6hrs electricity per day, they'll still classify you as 20-24hrs band A so that they can triple your tariff. They're all scammers.

Una wey dey this area make una signify o!

scam government

Instead of them to tell us say we don increase light bill. they all started whining on how it is the rich that will bear the increase.


Government by scammers, thieves, drug lords and addicts, Yahoo Yahoo people always thinking of ways to inflict pains and hardship on the populace .

But one day monkey go go market him no go come back.

Tinubu is out to swindle Nigerians so his son could wear wristwatch of 2billion dollars:

Fuel price increased!

Diesel increased!

Food prices increased!

Electricity bill increased

Tax net widened!

VAT to be increased to 15%

And no tangible improvement.

What do you expect from a man who dealt with white chalk in the past

blacknp:
NERC is now Tinubu abi?

NERC have no power to increase electricity tariff without the approval of the federal government. Nothing of such happens without Tinubus consent

By the time Tinubu finish with Nigerians ba?

Yoruba go stone am on their own.. forgets today kids that come online to laugh at reality.. kids having no responsibilities
E go clear..

Na 8 years .. walahi..

Calculate your time and where you go Dey by then .. add responsibilities to this reality.

Walahi ba?

They kids will grow and see what men are seeing.. and others still feeding mama thank you will laugh at their reality

Tinubu and Apc are evil

On behalf of my neighbour and landlady, we rebuke and reject Band A & B in Jesus name.

They are not talking about your Agulu fraudster, serial party defector and fake messiah loser!

Even the 33kva line isn't what it used to be anymore.

Those who have been categorized in the wrong band should be reversed

No VI, Ikoyi, Lekki

Modified
They are under EKEDC

These people are just wicked. See them adding areas that don't even see 10 hours light daily to Band A all because they want to justify the tariff increment.

Propaganda everywhere. smh

OLANIYI IN ABULE EGBA, THEY ARE DOING ONE DAY ON AND ONE DAY OFF FOR US HERE. On our ON days, they give us light from 4pm till 10am the next morning. We seldom see light during the day. A very bad place for remote workers

These same folks are the ones that make every person that successfully left Nigeria to celebrate. Haba!
