South African authorities have restored power to Nigeria’s High Commission in Pretoria. 

Dr. Nasiphi Moya, Executive Mayor of the City of Tshwane, announced that the High Commission’s power was disconnected due to unpaid utility bills. 

Moya confirmed in a follow-up communication that the diplomatic mission had settled the outstanding debts.

“We thank the High Commission of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for honouring its debt to the city. The city will reconnect electricity,” she wrote.
