Cc IkejaElectric order from the top

After two weeks outage,what about one day off one day on,is it not the same two weeks?

The right question is: Will NERC come to my rescue if they disconnect my line

Talk is cheap.

nekujumi Who are we not to pay? You are not doing enough to safe us from the discos jare

There will never be two weeks outage. enugudisco will be dropping it 2hours per day supply to beat this policy. Forget that. You are not smarter than the distribution companies. Coal_City PowerUpNG NERCNG PowerLogNG

Let there be law backing it now, it should not be made newspapers affairs

Nigerian Electricity Regulation Commission's plan is okay. However, how much a meter will cost? And again, would the analog meter in the customer's home be replaced with prepaid meter?

Scammers!

Why two long weeks, why not start with two days and keep them on their toes.

When they then come to disconnect your power nko. You climb the pole and reconnect it? Give out pre paid metres. It's simple. Stop supporting scammers. You've encouraged them to defraud Nigerians especially the poor. It's a crime and a sin.

For nija?
