Nigerians across the nation experienced a total blackout as of 01:21am on Wednesday, April 29.

The incident raised fears among Nigerians on social media attributing the darkness to collapse of the national grid.

Several tweets on Twitter reported the same issue stating that the power went off in the same manner that suggested collapse of the nation’s grid.

the light went off really slowly instead of the usual blink out

almost like it was powering down

is this another national grid collapse?

However, as at 6:10am on Wednesday, April 29, several reports said the power has been restored.
