Nigerians once again will experience conplete darkness
as the power grid has allegedly recorded a total collapse.
The system collapse led to the shutdown of all the nation’s power plants on Saturday.
An industry source, who is a top executive of one of the nation’s electricity distribution companies, on condition of anonymity said that the national grid first collapsed on Friday.
When contacted to find out the cause of the outage in parts of Lagos, he said, “It’s a general thing; it is a system collapse. It happened yesterday and this morning. All the power plants were shut down.”
Last week, the nation’s power grid suffered a total collapse, for the first time since February.
Data obtained from the Federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing showed that the grid collapsed on June 8, bringing the number of total collapses recorded so far this year to seven.
