The court directed Kano Electricity Distribution Plc to discontinue the implementation of tariff increased from N76.54/Kwh to N225/Kwh.
Justice Abdullahi Muhammad Liman, who granted the order also directed NERC and KEDCO to stop taking any step, pending hearing and determination of a motion on notice filed by the applicants.

The court granted the order after hearing counsel for the applicants, Abubakar Balarabe Mahmud and Yahaya Isa Abdulkareem.
The applicants in the matter are Supper Sack Limited, BBY Sack Limited, Mama Sannu Industries Limited, Dala Food Nigeria Limited, Tofa Textile and Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) Co limited by guarantee.
