Nigeria names alleged corrupt electricity contractors

Following the approval of the hike in electricity tariff by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, customers in the band, a category who receive 20 hours and above supply of electricity, will now have to pay 225 Naira per kilowatt hour against the 66 Naira payable before the hike. This directive, which came in the middle of fuel subsidy removal, foreign exchange crisis, and high inflation rates, has been heavily criticized by the citizens.

A decade on, the world has largely forgotten about the Chibok girls, who were kidnapped by Nigeria's Boko Haram Islamist militants. But for victims and their families, like Solomon Maina, who is still waiting for news about his daughter, the tragedy is ongoing.

Fuel shortages in Nigeria have raised the price of gasoline and caused huge queues in cities like the capital Abuja, in a country already grappling with high inflation and a cost of living crisis.
