Nigerians may soon face more challenges in the supply of electricity to their homes as the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) is set reduce the legal period consumers are allowed to owe before disconnections from three months to 10 days.
In a document it titled, âConsultation Paper on Review of Customer Protection Regulations in the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industryâ, the regulatory agency also said it was considering re-introducing service charge to be borne by the countryâs electricity customers.
In the paper signed by the Chairman of NERC, Mr Sanusi Garba, obtained by THISDAY, the commision stated that it was desirous of reviewing the regulations to align them with the current market realities, ironically, in order to ensure the interests of customers are adequately protected.
