    Reps to probe frequent national grid collapses

    The House of Representatives has instructed its Committee on Power to swiftly probe the frequent national grid collapses and provide a report within three weeks.

    This is amid a motion of urgent national importance raised by Hon. Mansur Manu Soro (Bauchi, PDP) during the plenary session on Wednesday.

    Hon Soro, in his motion, expressed deep concern over the persistent grid failures, which have plunged the entire country into blackout, worsening the economic challenges already faced by Nigerians.

    The lawmaker stressed that a stable power supply is essential for driving economic growth and development in any nation.




    He pointed out that the national grid had collapsed eight times in 2024 alone, describing the situation as alarming.

    He highlighted that states in the North West and North East regions have been left in darkness due to the ongoing power sector crisis, urging the Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, to restore electricity to the affected areas.

    Soro also noted the troubling fact that these grid collapses are occurring even as the Minister of Power assures the public of improved electricity supply—a promise that led to the government’s approval of increased electricity tariffs for Band A customers.
