THE national grid has collapsed again. The grid collapsed between 11 am and 12 pm on Wednesday, September 10.
In a separate notice, Abuja Electricity Distribution Company, Port Harcourt Disco, confirmed Wednesday’s grid collapse, which led to an outage across its franchise.
The cause of this grid disturbance is yet to be disclosed by the Transmission Company of Nigeria.
“We regret to inform you that a system disturbance occurred on the national grid at 11:34 am today (Wednesday), causing a power outage across our franchise areas.
“While gradual restoration of power supply has commenced, please be assured that we are working closely with relevant stakeholders to fully restore electricity as soon as the grid is stabilised,” AEDC said in a statement on X on Wednesday.
The grid disturbance comes after the one that occurred on January 11, 2025.
This incident follows a pattern of instability, with the grid suffering about 12 consecutive collapses in 2024.
