Tinubu also disclosed that he does not believe in price control and he won’t toe that path.

“I don’t believe in price control, we will work hard to supply the market,” he said.

Upon his assumption of power, Tinubu government had hiked the electricity tariff and removed the subsidy on fuel.

On April 3, 2024, the electricity regulator raised tariff for customers said to be under the Band A classification, with customers now paying N225 kilowatt per hour from N66.
