The former General Manager of the Wharf Landing Fees Collecting Authority said his office has seven units of airconditioners.
He added that if care is not taken, the high tariff will kill businesses in Nigeria.
Igbokwe wrote: “PBAT, please look into the new electricity tariff in Nigeria.
“It will kill businesses if the government does not act as quickly as possible.
“I have a small office in Surulere with about 7 units of AC.
