The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) has announced a fresh power outage affecting some parts of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.

According to AEDC, the affected areas include Usuma Street, off Gana Street, Zenith Bank, H-Medix, and surrounding locations in Maitama, Abuja.
The company explained that its technical team was working to identify and repair the fault to restore electricity supply to affected customers.
