The Eko Electricity Distribution company has on Wednesday announced that the national power grid has collapsed.
“Dear customers, we regret to inform you of a system collapse on the national grid at precisely 11:27 am today, Wednesday, July 20. We are in talks with the Transmission Company of Nigeria to ascertain the cause of the collapse and a possible restoration timeline.
“We will keep you updated on the situation,” the Disco company said via its Twitter handle on Wednesday.
The collapse of the national power grid made it the sixth time this year.
On June 13, the grid had collapsed for the fifth time in 2022.
The collapse is expected to, as usual, halt electricity supplies to some parts of the country.
