Nigeria’s electricity subsidy has risen to nearly N200 billion, with the government paying N199.64 billion in subsidies for December.
This is a 2.76% increase from November’s N194.26 billion.
According to the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, the small increase is due to changes in the exchange rate, higher inflation, and changes in power generation.
