A fresh power outage has affected some
embassies and several residential estates in Abuja due to a technical fault on
the feeder supplying the affected areas.
An announcement by the Abuja Electricity Distribution
Company (AEDC), said the disruption in power supply impacted the America,
Turkey, Cuba, Ethiopia, Iran, Liberia, Egypt, and Japan embassies, and
surrounding environs.
Several residential areas, including Brains &
Hammer City Estate, Today Estate, Dape District, Katsina Estate, Paradise
Estate, Ochacho Estate, Kafe District, American Embassy Estate, and parts of
Gwarinpa, have also been affected.
The electricity distribution company, however, assured
residents and businesses that its technical team was working diligently to
restore power as soon as possible.
“We regret the inconvenience caused by this outage and
appreciate our customers’ patience as we work to resolve the issue,” the
statement read.
The company also announced a planned maintenance
activity scheduled for Sunday, March 23, 2025, that will result in a temporary
disruption of vending services for prepaid customers.
The statement read: “During this brief window, prepaid
customers may experience momentary interruptions when recharging their meters
or accessing vending platforms. Normal service will resume immediately after
the maintenance is completed. This activity is part of our ongoing efforts to
enhance our service experience for our customers and ensure greater reliability
and efficiency. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and
