“The suspect will be charged soon,” she said.
Meanwhile, Nigeria’s power grid once again suffered a system failure, causing a nationwide power outage.
The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) in a statement on Saturday confirmed the power outage and said the blackout in its franchise outlets was due to a fault in the national grid system.
According to the power distribution companies, they are working with relevant stakeholders to restore power supply as soon as the grid is stabilised.
