Distribution companies confirmed this on Monday through statements to inform their respective consumers where they disclosed that the collapse occurred at 6:48pm.

Confirming the incident to its customers, the Eko Electricity Distribution Company in a statement on its X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “Dear Valued Customer, Kindly be informed there was a system collapse at 18:48hrs which has resulted to a loss of power supply across our network.

“We are currently working with our partners as we hope for speedy restoration of the grid. We will keep you updated as soon as power supply is restored. Kindly bear with us,” Eko DisCo said.

Similarly, the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company Plc (EEDC) also announced a total system collapse of the national grid, leading to a widespread blackout across the South-East region of Nigeria.

EEDC in a statement by its Head of Corporate Communications, Emeka Ezeh, confirmed that the outage affected all of its interface stations connected to the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).

“We regret to inform our customers that all our interface TCN stations are out of supply, making us unable to provide services across our network. We are awaiting further information from the National Control Centre (NCC) in Osogbo regarding the cause of the collapse and the timeline for restoration,” the statement read.
