AEDC, Poor Power Supply And High Tariff AEDC
There are media reports that power supply in Lafia and its environs became so epileptic with residents accusing the AEDC of exploiting consumers through an estimated and uniform billing regime.The residents alleged that AEDC gives every house in Lafia a uniform estimated bill, irrespective of the number of apartments or rooms in each house, and the bill keeps increasing on a monthly basis.

To understand both the enormity and impact of AEDC’s arbitrary billing, it is necessary to reaffirm the fact that nearly two-thirds of the population of Nigeria are multi-dimensionally poor, according to the statistics revealed by the National Bureau of Statistics .
