The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company, IBEDC, has made public the names of erstwhile Band A feeders downgraded to B, C D, or E.
The Farm Feeder serving the Obasanjo Farm, owned by Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, was downgraded from Band A to Band E in the list released by the IBEDC on Saturday, April 6.
About 28 feeders under the IBEDC were downgraded in Oyo, Ogun, Kwara, and Osun States.
In the list, some areas dropped from 20 hours of daily power supply to zero hours.
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC, has said this brought about the removal of those feeders from Band A to the band that fits their daily power allocation.
Announcing the April 2024 supplementary Multi-Year Tariff Order on Wednesday, April 3, the Federal Government said it would no longer pay subsidy on electricity consumed by Band A customers, saying others would continue to pay the old rates.
Band A customers, who were said to be enjoying electricity for a minimum of 20 hours per day now pay N225 kilowatt per hour.
