Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has cried out to President Bola Tinubu to look into the new electricity tariff in the country.

Igbokwe, a staunch supporter of Tinubu’s presidency, said the development will kill businesses if the Nigerian government doesn’t act as quickly as possible.

In a post on his Facebook page on Saturday, Igbokwe lamented that N20,000 worth of units now only last for just a day.

The APC chieftain, therefore, urged the government to review the electricity tariff.

He said: “PBAT, please look into the new electricity tariff in Nigeria. It will kill businesses if the government does not act as quickly as possible. I have a small office in Surulere with about about 7 units of AC.

“We used to buy 300 plus units for N20,0000. Yesterday we bought N20,000 worth of units and it lasted for just one day. They call it band A group. I pray that we review this.”
