Based on a survey conducted in 2023, the majority of Nigerians paid between 1,000 and 5,000 Nigerian naira (1.31 U.S. dollars and 6.54 U.S. dollars) monthly for their household's electricity consumption. Some 44 percent spent an amount within that bracket. Furthermore, around a quarter of the respondents claimed they paid from 6,000 to 10,000 Nigerian naira (7.84 U.S. dollars and 13.07 U.S. dollars) monthly. On the other hand, 15 percent did not know or refused to answer how much they were paying each month for electricity usage.
