Many parts of Nigeria have been plunged into darkness again following another collapse of the national grid on Wednesday.
Recall that the grid experienced multiple collapses in October, with the Federal Government promising a permanent solution to the ongoing issue.
A post on the official account of Nigeria’s national grid on X revealed that the collapse occurred at about 2:06 pm on Wednesday.
“The major grid setback has occurred and the restoration is to commence,” it reads.
It was learnt that from January 2024 till November, the grid has collapsed 11 times.
Within one week in October, the grid collapsed three times with its attendant blackouts, sparking reactions from Nigerians.
This collapse makes it a historic 12 times in a year that the grid has collapsed.
