Residents of Lagos State are to brace for a 25-day power outage as the Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) has announced a 25-day blackout to begin on Monday, July 28, 2025, and continue until Thursday, August 21, 2025.
In a public notice posted on its official X (formerly Twitter) account on Friday, EKEDC urged customers to take necessary precautions and manage their energy usage efficiently.
According to EKEDC, the daily outage will occur from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., affecting several areas under its coverage.
The blackout is due to critical maintenance work by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) on the Omotosho–Ikeja West 330kV transmission line, a major power artery supplying parts of Lagos. The upgrade, EKEDC noted, is essential to improve long-term grid stability and electricity delivery across the state.
“EKEDC has announced a daily planned power outage from Monday, 28 July, to Thursday, 21 August 2025, due to essential maintenance work by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) on the Omotosho-Ikeja West 330 kV line.
“The outage will occur between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. each day, affecting several parts of Lagos and other serviced areas. During this period, residents should expect intermittent electricity supply and load shedding across the Eko Disco network,” the Disco stated.
