Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has warned President Bola Ahmed Tinubu against the planned phase-out of electricity subsidies from 2027, urging the Federal Government to consider the impact of higher energy costs on ordinary Nigerians and businesses.
Atiku argued that affordable electricity is critical to the survival of small businesses, manufacturers, artisans and millions of Nigerian households.
The Federal Government has said it intends to phase out electricity subsidies as part of efforts to make the power sector financially sustainable, while developing measures to cushion the impact on vulnerable consumers.
