Electricity Bill: Switch Off Your Light, Learn to Manage – Tinubu Urges Nigerians
The President, Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to learn how to switch off their lights at home in order to reduce electricity Bill.
Tinubu stated this on Monday during a chat with reporters at his Bourdillon residence in the highbrow Ikoyi area of Lagos State, noting that it is not bad to learn how to manage electricity.
“It’s not negative to learn to manage. You learn to control your electricity bill, switch off the light, let’s learn to manage,” Tinubu stated.
He also said he does not believe in price control and he won’t go that path. “I don’t believe in price control, we will work hard to supply the market,” he said.
Recall that after his inauguration in May 2023, energy costs skyrocketed, especially with the removal of petrol subsidy and electricity tariff hikes. Petrol prices more than quadrupled, soaring from less than N200 per litre to over N1,100 in many parts of the country.
