Tinubu Urges Nigerians to Cut Costs by Switching Off Lights and Managing Energy Use
President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to adopt better management practices by being mindful of their energy consumption, particularly through actions like switching off lights when not in use.
During a recent media chat with journalists in Lagos, the president emphasized that such habits could help reduce electricity bills, which have become a growing concern for many Nigerians.
Tinubu pointed out that learning to manage resources effectively is not a negative approach, suggesting that individuals could control their electricity costs by simply switching off lights when not needed.
He called for a collective effort to adopt more sustainable practices, stressing that everyone could play a part in managing resources wisely to avoid unnecessary expenses.
In the same conversation, Tinubu also shared his stance on price controls, stating that he does not believe in implementing them.
He explained that rather than resorting to price control measures, his administration would focus on working hard to ensure the market is adequately supplied to meet demand, thereby helping to stabilize prices in the long run.
