AEDC Announces Disruption in Power Supply to Parts of Abuja

The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) has announced a power outage in several parts of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) due to a technical fault on the feeders serving the affected areas.

The company, in a statement on Saturday, said its technical team is working tirelessly to restore power as quickly as possible.

Persecondnews reports that the power outage will affects numerous locations, including Efab Classic Estate, Metro City Estate, Sticks & Stones, Yayala Estate, Trademore Estate, Choos Estate, Maxcare Plaza, Faith Plaza, Sunflower Plaza, Erifu Estate, DME Estate, Earthpoint Estate, Sunnyvale Estate, and Brains & Hammers 1, 2, 4.

Other affected areas include Hunters Garden, Ecofitness, Airport, NJI, NARSDA, NABDA, Lugbe Shoprite, Riverpark Estate, War College, Dunamis, NIGCOMSAT, Passo Village, Paiko Village, Dobi Community, SHEDA Science & Technology Complex, Kwali Town, WaterBoard, Abaji Town, Gishiri, Mabushi, Kadokuchi, Navy Estate, Anan House, and Jahi Village.

“We regret to inform you that the ongoing power outage is due to a technical fault affecting the feeders serving these locations,” the AEDC said.

“Our dedicated technical team is working tirelessly to restore power as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to serve you better.”

This is not the first time AEDC has announced a power outage in Abuja.

In April, the company announced a power outage in parts of the FCT, while in January, it announced that power supply would be disrupted due to the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) relocating feeder and transmission line towers.

In December 2024, power supply was disrupted due to maintenance exercises by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
