The Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company (IKEDC) on Monday announced a reduction in the tariff payable by its Band A customers to N206.80 per kilowatt-hour.
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) earlier approved the upward review of electricity tariff for Band A to N225/kWh.

It, however, said that the tariffs of customers on other bands would remain the same.
The notice said: “Dear Esteemed Customers, please be informed of the downward tariff review of our Band A feeders from N225/kWh to N206.80/kWh effective 6th May 2024 with guaranteed availability of 20-24hrs supply daily.
“The tariff for Bands B, C, D, and E remains unchanged.”
This comes amid outrage over the increase in electricity tariff amid biting inflation.
