Power drops below 2,800mw – NERC

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has said that
power supply through the national grid which peaked to 5000mw in
past two weeks had dropped below 2,800mw due to vandalism. Dr.
Anthony Akah, the Acting Chief Executive Officer of the commission
disclosed this while signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the
Consumer Protection Council (CPC).
A statement issued on the ceremony by Dr. Usman Abba- Arabi, Head,
Public Affairs Department of NERC was made available to newsmenon
Wednesday in Abuja. In the statement, Akah expressed dissatisfaction
and worries over the spate of vandalism in the power sector. It stated
that the NERC boss enjoined the public and the CPC to collaborate
with Distribution Companies (DISCOs) and security agencies to
safeguard electrical installations.
The statement also said that the NERC would soon compel the
DISCOs to publish their meter deployment schedules. It added that the
publication would ensure adherence to the meter roll out plan
contained in the performance agreement signed with government by
the utility firms.
``Such publication will make unmetered customers to be aware of the
estimated period they have to wait before they can be metered,’’ it

wrongful estimated billings and the acts of compelling customers to
buy, install and repair transformers and poles.

concerted efforts to reduce the incidence of estimated billing
completely. According to the statement, the Director General of CPC,
Mrs. Modupe Atoki, commended NERC for the long standing
relationship between the two agencies. Atoki, according to the

electricity consumers from abuse of their rights.
