 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London.

 Blackout As Nigeria’s National Grid Collapses Again


Nigeria was plunged into darkness on Wednesday afternoon after yet another collapse of the national electricity grid.


An update from the official monitoring handle showed that as of 12:25 PM, power distribution had dropped drastically across the country. Abuja DisCo was receiving 20MW, Benin DisCo 10MW, Ibadan DisCo 20MW, while Eko, Enugu, Ikeja, Jos, Kaduna, Kano, Port Harcourt, and Yola DisCos all recorded zero supply.


This latest collapse comes just months after a major outage in March, which left many parts of the country, including Lagos, without electricity. That incident occurred only days after the federal government announced what it described as a “historic rise” in power generation to 6,000MW.


However, by 2:00 PM on Wednesday, power output had crashed below 1,000MW, down from about 4,000MW generated earlier in the day. The peak recorded generation was 5,284MW.


Confirming the disruption, the Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company (IKEDC) informed its customers in a notice:

“Dear esteemed customer, please be informed that we experienced a system outage today, 07/03/2025, at 14:00hrs, affecting supply within our network.”
