Amekplenu stated that this levy has been added to the electricity tariffs that citizens pay. He wants to understand the reasons behind this charge.
The petition aims to find out if the levy was put in place correctly and how it is being managed. It seeks to ensure transparency in electricity pricing.
The Electricity Market Oversight Panel EMOP is responsible for overseeing aspects of the electricity market.
This call for an investigation highlights concerns about the fairness and legality of charges added to utility bills.
