Electricity has been restored in four states under the Jos Electricity Distribution franchise – Plateau, Bauchi, Gombe, and Benue, reports Daily Trust.
The power was restored at approximately 7:20 pm. on Wednesday. Daily Trust correspondent reports that residents of Jos, Plateau capital, erupted into jubilation when light was restored.
For the past 10 days, several northern states have been plunged into darkness following the tripping of the 330kV transmission line between Benue and Enugu states.
Consequently, residents of the affected states lamented the severe impact of the blackout on their daily lives and business.
