JUST IN: Again, nationwide blackout as national grid collapses for second time in 48 hours


The national grid has suffered another setback, plunging the country into another blackout, the second time in 48 hours.

This was confirmed on X by @NationalGridNg on Thursday.

“Another grid setback experienced,” the tweet reads.

The Jos Electricity Distribution, in a statement by its communications head on Thursday, Friday Adakole Elijah, said the current power outage is traceable to the fresh collapse.

“The loss of power supply from the national grid occurred this morning at about 1128 hours of today… hence the loss of power on all our feeders”, the statement reads in part.

This marks the second time the grip has suffered a setback this week and the twelfth time this year.

The development has resulted in mixed reactions from Nigerians, as many have called for the sack of the power minister, Adebayo Adelabu.
