Former Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar (GCON) has expressed displeasure at the recent electricity hike as announced recently.

Atiku, who made this known via his official twitter handle is being urged by Nigerians to lead a protest against the hike and the recently increased petrol price.

I reject the increased electricity tariffs. Coming out of the lockdown, Nigerians need a stimulus, not an impetuous disregard for the challenges they face. Many Nigerians have not earned an income for months, due to no fault of theirs. This increase is ill-timed and ill-advised.
