On Saturday morning at approximately 8:16, the national grid experienced its third collapse within a week, resulting in a cessation of power generation.
Notably, power generation had been disrupted earlier in the week on Monday and Tuesday during restoration efforts.
Subsequently, there was a significant decrease in generation to 47MW by 9 am. At that time, power distribution companies were allocated 0.00MW of power.
Regrettably, the specific cause of this collapse remains undetermined as efforts to reach the Transmission Company of Nigeria have been unsuccessful.
