A nationwide power outage has hit Nigeria as the national grid experienced system collapse again on Saturday.
Emeka Ezeh, the Head, of corporate communications at Enugu Electricity Distribution Company, disclosed this in a notice on Saturday.
According to the notice, the National Grid Collapse occurred around 15:09 hours on Saturday.
Consequently, bulk electricity supply from the Transmission Company of Nigeria National Control Centre has been disrupted.
EEDC said the situation is the reason for the loss of power supply in the Southeast states – Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo.
“This has resulted in the loss of supply currently being experienced across the network.
“Due to this development, all our interface TCN stations are out of supply, and we are unable to provide services to our customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo states.
“We are on standby awaiting detailed information of the collapse and restoration of supply from the National Control Centre (NCC), Osogbo,” the notice reads.
