Nationwide Power Outage continues for another two weeks.
The Federal Government has said that the power shortage currently experienced in most parts of the country will take the next two weeks or more to be resolved.
This was part of The Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo, speech in Abuja on Tuesday at the 6th Power Summit/Civil Society Organisations Forum.
The electricity supply situation worsened in recent weeks as a result of acute shortage of gas to thermal power stations, shutdown of some plants for maintenance purposes and the failure of at least seven plants to generate power at all.
Nebo said gas supply constraints had grounded several power stations leading to a major cut in supply to the national grid, adding that repair works on the western area gas pipeline was almost completed.
