There was blackout across Lagos State on Wednesday following the nationwide strike by electricity workers under the aegis of the National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE).
Ikeja Electric Plc and Eko Electricity Distribution Company (IKEDC) confirmed the development in separate public notices to their customers.

“Thank you for your usual understanding and cooperation,â€
