A report by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) says that wealthy Nigerians make up the highest consumers of electricity subsidies in Nigeria.
NERC revealed this in its 2022 Market Competition Report released on Wednesday, October 4, 2023, saying that the end-user tariff subsidy in Nigeria is more favourable to the rich as the top income earners in Nigeria consume more electricity than others.
