Jos DisCo blames power outages on reduced national grid allocation
The Jos Electricity Distribution has attributed the recent decline in power supply across its franchise areas to a significant drop in electricity allocation from the national grid.
This was disclosed in a statement on Wednesday.
It said the reduction in electricity allocation from the national grid directly affected the volume of power available for distribution to customers.
“The reduction in power supply is a result of decreased allocation from the national grid.
“As a distribution company, our capacity to supply electricity is dependent on what is made available to us,” stated the electricity company.
It restated that the situation was largely beyond the company’s control and appealed to customers for understanding.
According to the statement, the company is engaging relevant stakeholders in the power sector to address the challenge and improve supply stability across its operating areas.
Dauda reiterated the company’s commitment to improved service delivery, adding that efforts were ongoing to ensure a more stable power supply.
The development comes amid growing concerns over fluctuating electricity supply and broader energy challenges nationwide.
