THE ARBITRARY BILLS MUST BE BROUGHT TO AN END-SAM AMADI.

            According to sources,Chairman ofNigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission {NERC},Chief Sam Amadi,after the monthly meeting with Distribution and transmission companies said ''The arbitrary bills must be brought to an end.NERC has underlined the importance of following the methology of estimated billing.We have made it very clear that it is the responsibilities of the DISCOs to meter the customers,even though we have time gap to bridge the metering deficit but we want to see real action on that.We have also insisted that in the interim,before everybody is metered,the reckless estimation must stop immediately,and that means three things,one for customers,who have meters but not post paid meters,they have to go and read those meters,and for those who do not have any type of meter at all,NERC,has provided a methology that requires you to look at the amount of power you put on the feeder and that should be bench marked with those who have meters and you see how you do your estimation.What is going on now really in some places is not estimation,it is arbitral because estimation is based on some formula''.
