The Nigerian government paid N135 billion as a subsidy to electricity companies in the second quarter of this year to stop them from increasing tariffs.

The FG is weighing the option of returning full subsidy to the power sector in order to cover the rising tariff and improve the power supply in the country.

About 47 companies are bidding to provide 1.25 million meters to electricity consumers in Nigeria. The World Bank funds the project to the tune of $155 million.
