Nigerians have been plunged into darkness following another collapse of the national power grid on Friday, March 7, 2025. This marks the second major outage in the country this year.
Two major electricity distribution companies confirmed that the system failure occurred at exactly 2:00 PM.
In a statement shared on X, Ikeja Electric announced:
“Please be informed that we experienced a system outage today 07/03/2025 @ 14:00hrs, affecting supply within our network. Restoration of supply is ongoing in collaboration with our critical stakeholders.”
Similarly, Eko Electricity Distribution Company (Eko DisCo) attributed the blackout to a reduction in power allocation from the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), aimed at stabilizing the grid.
“This is to kindly inform you that the current power situation is as a result of reduced power allocation from our TCN partners aimed at maintaining grid stability. The situation has resulted in unavoidable load shedding across our network. Rest assured that we are taking all necessary steps to address the situation as we work closely with TCN and other partners to resolve the issue speedily and ensure a more stable power supply soonest.”
While efforts are ongoing to restore electricity, Nigerians continue to grapple with frequent disruptions in power supply, raising concerns about the reliability of the
national grid.
