Atiku Abubakar Reacts To Increased Electricity Tariff

The former vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar has reacted to the increased electricity tariff of Nigerians despite the hard times faced by many at this time due to Corona virus.

"I reject the increased electricity tariffs. Coming out of the lockdown, Nigerians need a stimulus, not an impetuous disregard for the challenges they face. Many Nigerians have not earned an income for months, due to no fault of theirs. This increase is ill-timed and ill-advised." He wrote.
