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 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.

As a result, customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo States are currently without electricity.

For its part, the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) told its customers, “Dear Valued Customer, the current outage is due to a system failure from the national grid at 6:58 pm, impacting power supply across our franchise areas.”

LEADERSHIP recalls that the current collapse of the national grid makes it the sixth in 2024, raising concern about the power supply challenges in Nigeria.
