Shortly after Nigeria recovered from a national grid collapse that left the entire country in darkness, another blackout has been reported in Abuja, Lagos and other parts of the country.
Guess what?
There is no official reaction yet from the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
It was a chilled Saturday morning and citizens were home to relax as usual.
But then again, the country’s national grid had other plans.
As we speak, it has collapsed againmarking the third time within one week with the power generaton falling to zero MW.
Blackouts were reported in Abuja, Lagos and other parts of the country.
To make matters worse, there is no official reaction yet from the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
“BREAKING: National Grid suffers a major setback,” the national grid monitor posted.
“DisCo Load 08:40 a.m: Abuja DisCo- 0 MW Benin DisCo- 0 MW Eko DisCo- 0 MW Enugu DisCo- 0 MW Ibadan DisCo- 0 MW Ikeja DisCo- 0 MW Jos DisCo- 0 MW Kaduna DisCo- 0 MW Kano DisCo- 0 MW PHarcourt DisCo- 0 MW Yola DisCo- 0 MW.”
Nigerians have taken to social media to air their frustration over the persistent collapse of the country’s national grid.
This collapse has left many individuals and businesses stranded, especially with the scarcity and hug cost of petrol.
