A power outage hit the federal capital territory and its environment on Tuesday as workers shut down the power supply over the Nigeria Labour Congress Two-day warning strike.
The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company disclosed this on Tuesday in a notice to customers through its X handle.
The DisCo said: We are aware of the general power outage being experienced across our franchise due to the enforcement by NLC of the 2-day warning strike embarked upon by the labour union.
“We apologize for any inconvenience you may be experiencing as a result of this, as we continue our engagement with key stakeholders towards minimizing the strike’s impact on our customers”, the notice partly reads.
LEADING REPORTERS recalls that NLC announced a two-day warning strike over the hardship occasioned by fuel subsidies removal, among other demands.
However, efforts by the federal government to halt the strike have yet to yield results.
