Power crisis deepens as national grid collapses for second time in 72 hours

For the second time in just three days, Nigeria’s national power grid has collapsed, leaving millions of households and businesses across the country in darkness.

The grid failure has impacted nearly every part of Nigeria, disrupting daily life and hindering economic activity.

The collapse, which occurred in the early hours, affected power distribution to key urban centres, rural communities, and essential services.

Households and businesses across various states reported sudden losses of power, with no clear timeline for restoration announced by authorities.

The frequency of grid failures has raised significant concern among industry experts and the public.

Nigeria’s electricity grid has long struggled with issues of aging infrastructure, poor maintenance, and underinvestment, leading to frequent power disruptions that impact productivity and quality of life.

Power sector stakeholders have been calling for immediate interventions to address the root causes of these recurring outages.

Many believe that large-scale investment in infrastructure, coupled with a strategic approach to maintenance, could help prevent such frequent collapses in the future.

Additionally, there are calls for the government to explore alternative sources of energy to lessen the dependence on a central grid and improve power stability.
