By Micheal Chukwuebuka
Six towers along Apir–Lafia transmission lines have been vandalized.
A statement by the General Manager Public Affairs, Transmission Company of Nigeria TCN Ndidi Mbah states that as a result of the vandalism, both Apir–Lafia 330kV Transmission lines one and two remain out of service pending reconstruction of the affected towers.
TCN says it is assessing the extent of damage with a view to commence work and restore normal transmission along the corridor.
Meanwhile, the Lafia 330kV Transmission Station is being supplied through the Lafia–Jos transmission line as a temporary measure to minimise the impact of the outage on affected electricity customers.
