The ESwatini Electricity Company has officially cancelled the proposed three percent increase. This result serves as a testament to the collective pressure exerted by those of us who demanded relief during these difficult times.

The response to this petition has demonstrated a clear consensus regarding the financial burden placed on our citizens. It is evident that the current economic climate makes any increase in utility costs entirely unsustainable for many households.

With covid, we lost jobs , it's even harder to get another one plus didn't they make over a billion emalangeni in profits last year? So how are they justifying this increase?
No no no EEC is not suppose to hike tarriffs we are dealing with Covid and cyclone Eloise some of us are unemployed no grants even now we beg from relatives to buy us electricity units they must introduce free units for the poor like me
I find it weird for this entity to tax us so much yet we're the ones buying poles wires for our houses bona bangena ngekutfola profits from day one I for one am tired let's boycott electricity atleast twice a week I'm fed up
Dear EEC you just cant beat someone who is lying down and defenceless.this is a very wrong time for tarrif hike,we thought you guys are also humans u understand the situation on the ground so please this is bad timing
How does eec raise their tarrifs when we facing COVID19, dwindling economy. Which nation are you serving, if you dont consider their plite? And besides you are quick to raise the tariffs but soo slow on service provision. What are we paying you for?

I personally think you should stop the 3% domestic tariffs increase. You can't be making so much profit and not changing lives with some of it and still demanding an increase because South Africa decides to increase theirs. It's unjust for Swazi citizens who live below the poverty line
