TCN Announces Planned Power Cut in Lagos, Blackout Fears Rise

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced another planned power cut in Lagos for routine maintenance, raising fears of yet another blackout in the city. The statement from TCN has become almost routine, highlighting the chronic electricity issues in Nigeria.

Despite decades of independence, the country still struggles to provide consistent power supply, often using maintenance as a convenient excuse for the ongoing blackouts. The situation has led many to question whether darkness has become the default setting for Nigeria, impacting the daily lives of Lagosians and reflecting the systemic failures in the country's power infrastructure.
