Newsnationwide Blackout In Nigeria As TCN Announces Total System Collapse by Nobody: 10:22pm On Sep 29, 2017
Share you experience if your area is experiencing such as according to daily report The Transmission Company of Nigeria has announced a total collapse of the country’s electricity grid.

It, however, assured that restoration of the grid was at an advanced stage and explained that the total collapse was due to tripping of three generator units at Egbin power generation station.

The daily report on Nigeria’s power sector stated that the grid collapsed totally on Thursday, September 28, 2017, after the country generated 3,515 megawatts of electricity the preceding day.

The TCN said, “A total system collapse was recorded on September 28, 2017 at 20:03Hrs.

“Reports obtained from stations and the sequence of events generated by the SCADA system indicated that the system collapse was triggered by the tripping of Egbin Units ST4, ST6 and ST5 at ‘20:03:15, 20:03:32 and 20:03:34’ respectively.

“By this incident, the Nigerian electric power grid lost generation completely before restoration commenced at 20:22Hrs.”

TCN added that the development had left the system vulnerable to the extent that perturbations of this magnitude resulted in severe system frequency dip that culminated in system collapse.

Yes let's forget our brains in the toilet and blame APC Buhari for power failure, it's not a blame game at all especially since it was Buhari who made NEPA a private company

We argued severally that privatizing NEPA at die minute was fraud and the objective is bail out funds , which for your information has been provided twice despite other allocations and crazy bills



Buhari can never do anything right to some people

Mr Fashola can now understand that it's easier criticize from outside than inside
