Breaking: FG jerks up electricity tariff
Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has mandated an immediate upward review of electricity tariffs nationwide.
The increase is to commence on Wednesday 3 April.
This was revealed by NERC Vice Chairman Musiliu Oseni on Wednesday during a news conference in Abuja.
