National Grid Collapses Yet Again

Nigeria’s National Grid collapsed for the umpteenth time this year on Wednesday.

Data obtained from the Nigerian system operator’s portal showed that the grid recorded zero megawatts (MW) as of 2pm on Wednesday.

Also, in a tweet shared by Nigeria’s National Grid official X (formerly Twitter) social media page was a flyer from the Eko Electricity Distribution Company, of which its contents read, “Dear Valued Customer, Kindly be informed there was a reported case of system disturbance on 11th November, 2024 at 13:32hrs which has resulted to a loss of power supply across our network.

“We are currently working with our partners as we hope for speedy restoration of the grid. We will keep you updated as soon as power supply is restored.”
