After the national electricity grid collapsed on Thursday, power supply has been restored across the country.
The collapse of the grid had earlier led to a massive loss of supply to power distributors nationwide.
However, hours after the incident, the Eko Electricity Distribution Company (Eko Electric), confirmed that the power supply had been restored from the grid.
According to the company, “Dear Valued Customer, kindly be informed that power supply has been restored from the grid. Thank you for your patience".
The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) had earlier confirmed the collapse of the national grid but assured that efforts are in top gear to resolve the problem.
TCN had earlier stated through its General Manager, Public Affairs, Ndidi Mbah, that, “The Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, hereby notes that grid restoration nationwide is in progress and has reached advanced stages with power supply now available in the West, North Central, South, ensuring its stability”.
In explaining the reason for the collapse, the TCN said it “occurred after a fire incident on Kanji/Jebba 330kV line 2” but added that the matter “is being investigated, with the view to forestalling future occurrence and invariably further strengthening the grid.
