National grid collapses again
The National Grid has suffered yet another collapse on Wednesday, making it eleven collapses and disturbances in 2024.
Within one week in October, the grid collapsed three times with its attendant blackouts, sparking reactions from Nigerians.
A tweet via the official handle of Nigeria’s National Grid confirmed that the grid collapsed at about 2:09 pm on Wednesday.
“The major grid setback has occurred and the restoration is to commence,” the handler wrote.
This collapse makes it 12 times this year that the grid has collapsed.
The development was also confirmed in a statement by Jos Disco to its customers.
The utility company, however, said the grid collapsed around 1: 33 PM today, leading to the loss of power supply to its feeders.
“We hope to restore normal power supply to our esteemed customers as soon as the grid supply is restored back to normalcy,” Head Corporate Communications, Jos Disco, Dr Friday Elijah told its customers.
Meanwhile, the Abuja Disco in a statement disclosed, “Dear Valued Customers.
We wish to inform you that a system disturbance occurred on the national grid at 1:32 pm today causing a power outage across our franchise areas.
“While gradual restoration of power supply has commenced, be assured that we are coordinating closely with relevant stakeholders to restore power fully as soon as the grid is stabilised.”
