The House of Representatives has ordered the suspension of the hike of electricity tariff by the National Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC.
It also summoned the Minister of Petroleum Resources over
the current fuel scarcity.
These decisions followed the adoption of separate motions
moved by Shehu Ajilo and Kama Nkem Karama on Tuesday.
It would be recalled that NERC ordered the increment in tariff
while the lawmakers were on holiday. In addition, fuel scarcity is ravaging the
entire country following the inability of NNPC Limited to provide products to
marketers.
Shehu Ajilo moved the motion on petroleum scarcity, and the
motion was taken without debate.
The House ordered that the Minister of Petroleum Resources
must appear before the House.
Meanwhile, the motion to suspend the electricity tariff was
moved by Nkemkanma.
The House directed that the Minister of Power should appear
before a special committee to probe the hike.
Equally, the motion was adopted without debate.
