The increase in electricity tarrif by about 300% has continued to generate reactions from consumers in Jos, the Plateau State Capital, as many call on the government to again look at the implications of the hike on Nigerians and small businesses that depend mainly on power to survive .
electricity consumers say the federal government s decision to hike electricity tarrif was ill timed and could have adverse effects on the already harsh economy.
Some business owners who largely depend on electricity to work are worried that many may be forced out of business if they are unable to meet up with the new price amid increase in prices of raw materials.
