Nigeria in total darkness as national grid collapses again

The national grid collapsed again on Wednesday, plunging homes and offices across the country into a total blackout.

The Eko Electricity Distribution Company confirmed the grid collapse, which it said occurred at about 11:27am.

“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,” the Disco company said via its Twitter handle on Wednesday.
