Hike In Electricity Tariff, Issues And Challenges

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission has assured Nigerians that better days are just around the corner as all hands are on deck to improve power supply in the country.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC, Dr Sam Amadi, gave the assurance on Business Morning on Friday, where he defended the implementation of a new electricity tariff in the multi-year tariff order (MYTO).

Meanwhile, an entrepreneur, Mr Christian Tom-West and a consultant in the power sector, Mr Daniel Mueller, argued that they cannot be paying more when they are not getting value for their money.

They urged the regulator to make these charges affordable for consumers and ensure that they get value for their money.
