Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian lady, @oluwalosheyii, who moved to the UK four months ago has made a TikTok video about the high electricity tariff in the foreign country.

Sharing a video, the lady showed people her pre-paid metre, saying she just got an electricity unit for £10 (5,688.55) and it is already draining fast. She added that would be the fifth time she is buying the same unit in a month. That puts the cost at £50 (28,442.75).
