Power Crisis Deepens Nationwide
Electricity generation in Nigeria has dropped sharply to 3,940 megawatts after several power plants shut down due to disruptions in gas supply.
The fall in output occurred as gas shortages forced a number of generating companies to scale back operations, leading to a sudden reduction in electricity available to the national grid.
Many power stations in the country rely heavily on gas to run their turbines, and when supply is interrupted, production slows or stops entirely.
The situation has already begun affecting electricity distribution across several regions.
The drop in generation has raised fresh concerns about the stability of Nigeria’s power sector, as authorities and energy operators work to address the gas supply challenges and restore normal output.
