The Nigerian Independent System Operator (NISO) has said it does not own, manage, or operate the social media handle on X (formerly Twitter) identified as “Nigeria National Grid.” 

In a statement by its management, on Saturday, the System Operator stated that those behind the X handle are not known to the organisation. 

“NISO is not associated in any way with the said handle, and the individuals or entities managing it are unknown to the organization and have no affiliation with NISO. 

“Accordingly, the public and media organizations are advised not to quote, reference, or attribute any information, statements, or opinions published on the said handle to NISO, as such content does not reflect the position, operations, or activities of the organization. 

“NISO is legally mandated to manage the National Grid, and all its official communications are issued exclusively through its verified channels and authorized platforms.

“NISO appreciates the cooperation of stakeholders and the media in ensuring accurate and responsible information sharing,” the statement read.
