Nigeria has entered another nationwide blackout due to the failure of its national grid system.

This incident marks the sixth time the grid has collapsed in 2024.

Investigations by Nairametrics confirmed that all distribution companies are currently receiving no electricity from the grid, leaving their feeders without power.

The Eko Electricity Distribution Company also issued a statement on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the situation, informing customers about the power supply disruption.

“Dear Valued Customer,

“Please be informed that there was a system collapse at 18:48 hrs, resulting in a loss of power across our network.

“We are collaborating with our partners to expedite the restoration of the grid. We will keep you informed as soon as power supply is restored. Thank you for your patience,” Eko DisCo stated.

This story is still developing.
