Last Thursday night I ran out of fuel on Third Mainland Bridge, 11pm, Phone at 2%, No power bank… I want to tell you what happened next.
I pushed the hazard lights on and sat in the car trying to think, Cars were flying past me, Nobody slowed down… Not one person…
Tomorrow Saturday, 30th May, 2026, is our monthly environmental sanitation exercise across Lagos State and I urge every resident to participate fully from 6.30am to 8.30am. Please stay at home and clean your surroundings. Clear your drains, sweep your frontages, BAG YOUR WASTE, and place it at designated points for LAWMA to evacuate.
This monthly exercise is not a punishment, it is our collective civic duty to protect our environment, prevent flooding, and safeguard public health. The compliance we have witnessed so far has been encouraging but we must keep building the momentum.
Let us come out tomorrow and do the work that keeps our city safe and clean. I thank all Lagosians for their cooperation and I assure you that together we will sustain a #CleanerLagos and a #GreaterLagos.
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.
It's better to do the right thing at the get-go, don't respond based on emotions or how they came at you.
A split second of, “Holy Spirit, how should I respond to this?” is better, and certain things would have been avoided.
