The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory
Commission has revealed that over four million electricity consumers are
awaiting prepaid meters in the country.
The Acting NERC Chairman, Dr. Anthony Aka, Made the disclosure in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Uyo on Saturday.
Aka said the commission had improved on
metering system, but explained that the unavailability of meter
manufacturing companies were hindering maximum provision of meters to
Nigerians.
He said the commission would sanction
any Electricity Distribution Company which failed to comply with
directives relating to the distribution of prepaid meters.
“It is our responsibility to ensure compliance with the metering schedule.
He noted that any customer who paid for a meter should have it within 60 days of payment.
