Nigeria’s electricity grid collapsed for the fifth time this year in the early hours of Monday, highlighting the country’s inability to provide reliable power after raising tariffs for wealthier consumers by 230% only two weeks ago.
National supply data showed the supply of power via the grid fell to around 50MW early on Monday from 4020MW the previous day. Some analysts have criticised the tariff increase because it pushes more power to wealthier consumers from the meagre 4 000MW available for distribution to over 200 million Nigerians from the grid.
