Nigeria's Senate Committee calls for reversal of 200% electricity tariff hike for Band A consumers.

Nigeria's Senate Committee on Power and various stakeholders call for a reversal of the recent 200% electricity tariff hike for Band A consumers, who receive up to 20 hours of electricity daily.

The Senate had previously urged the FG not to increase the tariff, stating it was ill-timed.
