The national electricity grid has experienced another system collapse, leading to a nationwide blackout.
Electricity distribution companies (DisCos) confirmed the system collapse in separate statements on Monday.
In a statement on Monday, Friday Adakole Elijah, head of corporate affairs, Jos Electricity Distribution Company (DisCo), said the current outage being experienced within its franchise states is due to a loss of power supply from the national grid.
“The loss of power supply from the national grid occurred in the early hours at about 0242 hours of today, Monday, 15th April 2024, hence the loss of power supply on all our feeders,” he said.
Also, Eko Electricity Distribution Company (DisCo) said there has been a disruption “in our services which is due to load shedding from TCN on Annex, CIG, Dideolu, Etim Inyang, Palace Road and Rocky Estate feeders in Islands district”.
“Affected areas are Jubril Martins, Ajose Adeogun, Younis Bashorun, Fatai Durosinmi-Etiti Crescent, Muri Okunola, Ligali Ayonrinde, Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue, Chief Yesufu Abiodun Way, Palace Road, Dideolu Estate, Etim Inyang Crescent and Ademola Adetokunbo,” Eko DisCo said.
