Electricity has been restored in Nigeria after the grid collapsed earlier on Monday for the sixth time this year. | |
The state-owned power distribution company said the outage was caused by a fire outbreak at the power station in Afam town in the southern Rivers state. | |
The system was restored later on Monday afternoon, the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) said, adding that it would continue to strengthen the grid infrastructure to prevent future disruptions. | |
It is not clear how many people were affected, but there were angry comments across social media. | |
Grid power supplies are often erratic in Nigeria, despite being one of the biggest crude oil producers on the continent. | |
