The clarification follows complaints about light out in certain locations of the country, which was quickly attributed to another grid collapse.

The Tinubu-led federal government has debunked reports that the National Grid suffered another collapse again on Friday, 8th November, 2024.

According to a short statement by managers of the grid via their account on the X account, reports about another grid collapse are false information.

The clarification follows complaints about light out in certain locations of the country, which was quickly attributed to another grid collapse. However, the managers of the national infrastructure were quick to assure that there is no fresh collapse of the National Grid.

“Kindly disregard another grid collapse information being spread.

“It’s false information!”
the statement read.

If the National Grid collapsed on Friday, as speculated, it would be the third time it would happen in the space of one week.

Meanwhile, the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has disclosed why the national grid collapsed for the 11th time in 2024 just after the same collapse happened on Tuesday.

The General Manager, Public Affairs of TCN, Mrs. Ndidi Mbah, said the collapse on Thursday was caused by a sudden rise in frequency.

In a statement, Mrs Mbah stated that the frequency spike was caused by issues encountered at one of TCN’s substations.

She disclosed that repair works have started to ensure restoration.

TCN, however, added that instability would persist until all major works are completed.

The spokesperson assured Nigerians of TCN’s commitment to improving the reliability of electricity supply.
