Nationwide Grid Collapse: AEDC restores power in some parts of Abuja

The power outages experienced by Nigerians Monday evening have been restored in some parts of Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) franchise areas.

Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory, is the seat of power in Nigeria. The country has experienced multiple national power grid collapses since President Bola Tinubu assumed office on May 29, 2023.

Checks revealed that places like Deidei, Suleja, Lugbe, Kuje and other areas have their light restored on Tuesday at about 5:15 a.m.

Customers in the AEDC were told of the disruption in supply, which was attributed to the collapse of the National grid.

In a statement on its Twitter handle on Monday, the company said that the system collapse occurred at about 6.58 p.m.

”Be rest assured that we are working with relevant stakeholders to restore power as soon the grid stabilises,” it said.
