Reps push for removal of universities from Band A electricity tariff

The House of Representatives said that it would ensure that federal universities were removed from the Band A electricity tariff plan to lessen the huge electricity bill.

Chairman of the House Committee on University Education, Abubakar Fulata, said this in a statement on Friday in Abuja after the committee’s oversight of the federal universities in the North-east.

Some of the federal universities visited, according to him, include Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi, and Federal University Kashare, Gombe State.
