Why there’s power outage in Akwa Ibom – Power company

Ibom Power Company Ltd has attributed the current power outage in Akwa Ibom State to the unavailability of gas supply to its plant in the state.

Akwa Ibom has been without electricity for over 20 hours since Wednesday night, a departure from the stable supply enjoyed by the residents whenever other parts of Nigeria are in darkness because of the frequent collapse of the national grid.

In a statement issued on Thursday, the management of the Ibom Power Plant said, “Regrettably, our gas supplier, Savannah Energy, recently sabotaged the laudable efforts of Ibom Power by cutting off gas supply to the Ibom Power plant.
