There is blackout as national grid has collapsed again.
Glamtush reports that the national grid has collapsed for the fifth time in the year, plunging many places into darkness.
This online news platform understands that although the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) is yet to comment on the matter, the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) said the grid collapsed around 2:55 pm on Monday.
AEDC wrote on X, “We understand that some of our customers are still without power due to a system failure from the national grid at 2.55 pm today, August 5, 2024. Please be assured that the system is gradually stabilising, and we are working diligently with all relevant stakeholders to restore power to the affected areas as quickly as possible,” the AEDC stated, thanking the customers for their patience and understanding.
The grid has collapsed five times in 2024, the first happening on February 4. It also collapsed on March 28, April 15, and July 6.
