According to the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), several parts of Abuja, including Lugbe, Garki, Area 1, National Hospital, Guzape, and Asokoro, will experience a temporary power outage on Sunday, September 6, 2026, due to scheduled maintenance at the 132kV Apo Transmission Substation. The outage is expected to occur between 9:00am and 5:00pm, during which time TCN will string and latch Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) on the two 132kV Katampe–Apo Transmission Lines, Lines 1 and 2, between towers T130 and T132.

Approximately 20 people were injured in a road crash in Osun, and a woman's orange juice was deemed unfit for consumption by laboratory tests. In response to the diphtheria outbreak in Plateau State, the governor ordered the closure of schools.
