National Grid now collapses every ‘eke market’ day – Nigerians react to nationwide blackout

Reactions have continued to trail the nationwide blackout following another collapse of the national grid.

DAILY POST reports that since January 2024 till date, the grid has collapsed 12 times.

Nigerians were on Thursday, November 7 denied electricity again following another collapse of the national power grid after the November 5th total blackout.

The latest developments have sparked reactions from Nigerians on the internet, with some calling for the removal of the power minister over incompetence.

Some others have alleged that the generator importation cabal could be behind the collapse while others say the constant shut down of power across the country could be deliberate.

@Esteembehemoth on X, lamented the constant collapse of the grid, saying; “Every Eke market day. Sigh.”

@MrLekan213; “I talk ham say na SS be this national grid.”

@healthprefectt; “At this point, one would think you guys are doing this thing internationally.”

@carsblogerrrr; “Enough is enough! The National Grid has failed us again. How are we supposed to live, work, or even survive when we can’t depend on basic electricity? This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a crisis. We demand immediate action and solutions from our leaders! Sack the Minister of power, this shows he can’t do his job!”

@Oluwatoyinzoe; “Generator importers and oil cabals at work, how will they make money if the power supply is constant? The Minister of power is only cooking stories by saying the facilities are poor, it is definitely not that the facilities are poor, I strongly believe the boys sponsored by generator importers and oil cabals are the ones destroying sections of the national grid and the most shocking thing is those boys may be among those working to secure the national grid. The government need to go hard after them if they want to solve this problem once and for all.”

@ucnwali; “If only our National Grid was as strong as our National Greed.”

@meetdammy_; “National grid don dey fall pass dollar these days.”

@victor_oyibes; “The person in charge of this grid must be a 2minutes man.”
