- The Association of Nigeria Electricity Distributors (ANED) has disclosed that power distribution firms would soon begin customers’ enumeration exercises across the country to arrest irregularities and malpractices in electricity distribution.
- Sunday Oduntan, Executive Director, research and advocacy, ANED, noted that the customers’ enumeration became imperative due to the series of sharp practices committed by illegal electricity users on Nigeria’s energy distribution lines and that these are part of the major problems of electricity distribution companies.
- Oduntan also noted that that there was no going back on the proposed tariffs increase as all the power distribution companies had submitted new tariff rates to the regulatory bodies, adding that if no subsidies or waivers were given by government to cushion the effects of high and rising cost of production on the part of DISCOs, then there was no other alternative, except to increase the tariffs.
