The Federal government has set up an investigative panel over the frequent collapse of the national power grid, a development that has put the country through prolonged power outage.
The grid has collapsed more than three times within two weeks, the most recent being on Friday last week Friday.
This prompted the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) to institute a probe.
The Minister of Power had disclosed that a detailed investigation into the immediate and remote causes of the recurring grid failure is currently ongoing by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission and System Operator (the operator of the national grid), saying that necessary improvements will be made.
He therefore assured Nigerians that the Federal government is working tirelessly to deliver the much-needed reforms and investments, including Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) that are critical to improving the capacity and reliability of the national grid.
