Nigeria’s power grid has collapsed for the second publicly acknowledged time in 2024.
The Eko Electricity Distribution Company Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) confirmed this development in a social media post.
EKEDC’s social media post read; “Dear valued customer, kindly be informed there was a system collapse at 16:28hrs which has resulted in 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 the power supply is restored. Kindly bear with us.”
