SERAP sues Buhari, others over electricity tariff hike | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News ⬇️

Joined in the suit as respondents are Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami , Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission and the Nigeria Bulk Electricity Trading Plc .

The rights group is also asking the court to compel Buhari to order Malami and appropriate anti-corruption agencies to promptly investigate the spending of public funds as investments and bailouts to DisCos and GenCos since 2005. “The increase is unjustified, especially given the unreliable, inefficient and poor quality of electricity in the country. Millions of Nigerians continue to live in darkness despite the spending by governments of trillions of naira as investments and bailouts to electricity companies.

According to the body, the Federal Government has a legal responsibility to ensure transparency and accountability in how the investments and bailouts to electricity companies are spent to reduce vulnerability to corruption and mismanagement.
