BREAKING: National Grid Has Collapse Yet Again—-Darkness has hit Nigeria as the National grid recorded another collapse on Monday.

The Spokesperson of Enugu Electricity Distribution Company, Emeka Ezeh confirmed the grid collapse in a statement on Monday evening.

According to him, the general system collapse occurred at 18.48 hours on Monday.

The Disco said the development had led to a loss of power supply across its franchise.

“The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company PLC (EEDC) wishes to inform her esteemed customers of a general system collapse that occurred at 18:48 hours today, 14th October 2024. This has resulted in the loss of supply currently being experienced across the EEDC network.

“Consequently, due to this development, all our interface TCN stations are out of supply, and we are unable to provide services to our customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo States.

“We are on standby awaiting detailed information of the collapse and restoration of supply from the National Control Centre (NCC), Osogbo”, he said.

Also, Eko Distribution Company confirmed the grid collapse.

It wrote, “Dear Valued Customer,

“Kindly be informed there was a system collapse at 18:48hrs which has resulted to a loss of power supply across our network.

“We are currently working with our partners as we hope for speedy restoration of the grid. We will keep you updated as soon as power supply is restored.

“Kindly bear with us.”

DAILY POST observed power supply was interrupted around 6:50 pm on Monday.

In August 2024, the grid recorded partial failure which resulted in a blackout. The national grid also collapsed in July this year.

Data from the Transmission Company of Nigeria showed that the country’s national grid has collapsed about 227 times in the last 14 years.

This comes amid the hike in electricity tariff in April by 240 percent which has worsened the hardship Nigerians are facing.

BREAKING: The Trump Administration Has Reportedly Halt All Aid to Ukraine—-Donald Trump administration press secretary Caroline Leavitt stated that the U.S. will no longer provide military assistance to Ukraine because their priority is peace negotiations.

This decision came after the controversy during Zelensky’s visit.

“We are no longer going to just write blank checks for a war in a very distant country without a real, lasting peace,” Leavitt said.

“It was great that the cameras were rolling because the American people and the whole world got to see what President Trump and his team are dealing with behind closed doors in negotiations with the Ukrainians,” she added.

Earlier, The Washington Post reported that the Trump administration is not ruling out halting all ongoing military aid shipments to Ukraine, worth billions of dollars.

JUST IN: Moon Sighted As Saudi Arabia Confirms Ramadan To Begin On March 1—-Saudi Arabia has officially declared that the holy month of Ramadan will commence on Saturday, March 1, following the sighting of the crescent moon.

This announcement signifies the start of a month-long period of fasting and spiritual devotion for over 1.8 billion Muslims across the globe.

Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, follows a cycle of 12 months in a year that lasts either 354 or 355 days.

Observing the fast from sunrise to sunset is a fundamental pillar of Islam, mandatory for all healthy adult Muslims.

However, exemptions apply to children, the elderly, the sick, travelers, and women who are pregnant, nursing, or menstruating.

For generations, the beginning of Ramadan, as well as the Islamic festivities of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, has been determined by the sighting of the moon.

In many countries, including Saudi Arabia, work and school schedules are often adjusted during Ramadan to accommodate fasting and religious observances.

Meanwhile, the Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, has announced all schools in the state would be closed for Ramadan fast.

Thecloudngr reports that State’s Ministry of Education Information Officer, Jalaludeen Maina, confirmed the development on Friday.

Maina said the school closure was in line with the state’s approved school calendar for the 2024-2025 academic session in the state.

Maina disclosed that the closure would start from March 1 to April 5
