NLC condemns another electricity tariff hike, demands reversal

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has condemned another hike in electricity tariff by the Federal Government.

The Congress was reacting to the power distribution companies (DisCoS) hike in electricity tariff for “Band A” customers from N206.80 to N209.5 effective from July 1.

In a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja, the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, said the increase in tariff for the band “A” customers by the DisCoS was the height of impunity and arrogance.
