The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC on Wednesday told newsmen in Abuja that February 1 remains the date for the take off of the new electricity tariffs.
He also said that distribution companies have been directed to connect new customers only after they have been provided with prepaid meters.
“We wish to state that at no time did the commission change the date for the take off of the new tariff,” it said.
The acting Head of the NERC Dr. Anthony Akah, confirmed the removal of fixed charge under the new tariff regime, saying that the action “was in response to electricity consumers’ complaints and a measure to ensure electricity distribution companies improve on service delivery as their income is dependent on the quantity of electricity used by their customers.”
