The power returned at approximately 7:20 pm, bringing relief to the affected communities.

The prolonged outage, caused by a tripped 330kV transmission line between Benue and Enugu states, had severely impacted daily life and businesses in the region.

However, as lights flickered back to life, jubilation erupted in Jos, the Plateau state capital.
