Electricity consumers in the Federal Capital Territory have demanded the dismissal of personnel responsible for managing the National Grid, following its collapse on Saturday morning.
Recall the grid had collapsed on Monday, with power only being restored on Tuesday.
Saturday’s collapse marks the second in a week and the seventh in 2024.
Consumers residing in Kuje, Area 10, Gwagwalada, and surrounding areas voiced their frustrations over the frequent grid failures, urging the government to replace those overseeing it.
They expressed their weariness of repeated grid collapses and insisted that the government sack the current managers.
Mr Bisi Afolabi, a resident of Kuje, stated that he believes those responsible for managing the grid are not capable of handling the job.
According to him, since the grid frequently collapses, the government should dismiss those in charge and hire competent personnel.
