The national grid has collapsed again.

The electricity generation on the system collapsed from 2,583.7Mega Watts at 2am today to 64.7Mega Watts around 3 am.

This makes it the sixth collapse in 2024.

Nigeria generates an average of 4,000Mega Watts of electricity for an estimated two million citizens across the country.

Data from the Independent System Operator, an arm of the Transmission Company of Nigeria, showed that only one electricity generation company, Ibom Power, was active at the time of the grid collapse today.

Enugu Electricity Distribution Company Plc, however, assured residents of the region that efforts are being put in place to ensure that normalcy is restored soon.
