HAVE YOU GOTTEN YOUR SOLAR ELECTRICITY SYSTEM?

Across Lagos and Ogun State, churches, homes, and small businesses are facing rising energy expenses. The new electricity service-band system has significantly increased the cost of power, especially for customers on Band A and Band B feeders. Band A customers in many areas pay over ₦200 per kWh, while some recent tariff adjustments in certain states still keep rates around ₦160 per kWh or higher, depending on the distribution company. �

For Band B customers, tariff adjustments in some markets have also risen sharply, reaching as high as ₦180–₦203 per kWh in some cases. �

These rising costs make it increasingly difficult for churches running weekly services, small shops preserving goods, and families powering essential appliances to maintain stable monthly budgets. Unfortunately, the alternative—petrol or diesel generators—is no longer attractive. Fuel prices continue to rise, generator maintenance is expensive, noise pollution affects comfort, and the constant breakdown of small generators disrupts daily productivity.

Solar electricity systems now provide a dependable and cost-saving alternative. Once installed, solar systems drastically reduce or completely eliminate monthly electricity bills and generator fuel expenses. Churches can power sound systems and lighting without interruption, businesses can operate longer hours, and residents can enjoy quiet, clean, and reliable electricity.

This is the right time for individuals, ministries, and organizations in Lagos and Ogun State to ask a vital question: Have you gotten your solar electricity system? Investing in solar today is not just an environmental decision—it is a wise financial strategy that secures long-term energy independence and stability for homes, churches, and businesses.
