It’s disheartening to hear about Nigeria’s electricity grid collapsing yet again. This recurrent issue not only disrupts daily life but also hampers economic activities. With only one generation company, Ibom Power, active during the collapse, the situation appears dire.
This marks the sixth collapse in 2024 alone, highlighting the systemic challenges facing Nigeria’s power infrastructure. The fact that the grid could only generate 64.70 megawatts during the collapse is alarming, especially considering the country’s energy needs.

The statement from Jos DisCo underscores the widespread impact of the outage, affecting franchise states and leaving customers without power. Dr. Friday Adakole Elijah’s expression of hope for a swift restoration of the grid is understandable, as normal power supply is crucial for both households and businesses.
Addressing the root causes of these collapses and investing in more robust infrastructure are essential steps to prevent such recurring incidents and ensure a reliable power supply for Nigeria’s citizens.
