Power generation to the national grid had over the weekend, dipped below the 4,000 megawatts mark leaving citizens across the country with a limited electricity supply.
Investigations on the data provided by the National System Operator, NSO, an independent arm of the Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, revealed that only 18 of the 25 power plants in the country supplied power to the grid.
Meanwhile, the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company, AEDC, has explained that the power outage in some parts of the capital city was owing to problems with transmission facilities, reassuring its customers that all responsible stakeholders were at work to restore the power supply as soon as possible.
