BRACE UP : DARKNESS LOOMS IN LAGOS A prolonged blackout may be imminent in Lagos State following a sudden shutdown of the Egbin Power Station and a simultaneous transmission line outage. Egbin Power Station suffered a major operational disturbance, leading to a complete loss of generation. This has lead to a significant reduction in power generation currently affecting electricity supply across the country, particularly within the Lagos region. Egbin Power Station, which is the largest electricity-generating plant on the national grid and a major contributor to daily power supply in Nigeria, experienced a major operational disturbance. At approximately 8:21 p.m. on April 28, 2026, Egbin Power Station recorded a total loss of generation, dropping from about 641MW to zero output. This incident was caused by the failure of the plant’s central compressor, in addition to a malfunction of the circulating water pump system, which necessitated an immediate shutdown of all generating units to safeguard the facility.” The impact of the generation loss was compounded by a transmission constraint affecting power delivery into Lagos. Power supply to the Lagos region is currently further restricted due to the forced outage of the Osogbo–Ikeja West 330kV transmission line, thereby limiting the evacuation of available generation into the Lagos load centre.

I’m getting a borehole sank tomorrow. My first one. What are the things to watch out for to make sure that it’s done correctly and also measure accurate depth? Thanks.
