Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, Peter Obi has lamented the incessant collapse of the national grid saying power failures knows no tribe or religion but is suffered by all Nigerians.


The country was on Tuesday plunged into darkness following the collapse of the dilapidated national grid just three weeks after a similar incident, the Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, told Nigerians on Tuesday that the national grid collapsed around 1:52 pm due to a series of lines and generators trippings.

Reacting, Obi in a statement on Wednesday morning lamented that the collapsing of the national grid is “now regular news”.  See his Tweets below…

 “Just a few days ago, on the 25th of October, South Africa that was the second-largest economy in Africa behind Nigeria until recently, with a quarter of our population, celebrated seven months of uninterrupted power supply.


“South Africa generates and distributes about 40,000 MW of electricity, while Nigeria struggles to generate and distribute just 10% of that. Yet, despite this stark disparity, Nigerians continue to endure daily power outages.

“And when I ask the question: is there any tribe in Nigeria that enjoys uninterrupted power supply like South Africa? I am labelled a tribal bigot.

“When I ask if any religion enjoys special privileges in this crisis, I am called a religious bigot. But I will continue to speak the truth about our situation today.

“The fact remains that we are all suffering equally from this failure. The solution lies not in tribal or religious affiliations but in visionary leadership and a shared commitment to progress.


“We must set aside these primordial sentiments and elect leaders who are competent, capable, and have the vision to transform our nation from a consumer-driven economy to a productive one by investing our meager resources in critical areas of development like health and education, lifting our people out of poverty, and ensuring increased electricity production and distribution
