Abuja DisCo restores power after national grid collapse

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

A check on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, revealed that places including Deidei, Suleja, Lugbe, Kuje, and other areas in Abuja had their electricity restored at about 5:15 a.m. on Tuesday.

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