Last Friday was the first grid breakdown of the year.
Around 10:53 am, the Nigeria National Grid on X verified this most recent meltdown.
The piece was just titled “Grid Collapse.”
“Restoration is in progress!” was a follow-up tweet.
Data from the Nigerian Independent System Operator, or NISO, indicates that power generation has reached zero megawatts.
Distribution companies in Ikeja, Jos, Kaduna, Kano, Benin, Eko, Enugu, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Abuja, and Yola are among those impacted.
