The International Human Rights Commission Relief Fund Trust (IHRC-RFT) has expressed grave concerns over the persistent collapses of Nigeria’s national power grid, with nine disruptions in 2024 alone. This ongoing instability severely impacts citizens’ daily lives, undermines industries, and threatens foreign investments.

Root causes identified include aging infrastructure, underutilization of funds, insufficient power generation, and high transmission losses.

The organization urges the Nigerian government to take immediate action to address this crisis, promoting economic development, improving quality of life, and upholding human rights.
