The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced a scheduled six-hour power outage on Saturday for parts of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

This outage is necessary to conduct annual preventive maintenance on the 132kV line 1 at both Gwagwalada and Apo Transmission Substations.

According to Ndidi Mbah, the spokesperson for the commission, the maintenance will occur from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. Consequently, there will be a power interruption at the 132/33kV Kukwaba Transmission Substation during this period.

Areas affected by the outage include parts of Lokogoma, Kabusa Garden, TradeMore, Pyakasa, Aherita, Chika, Games Village, Stadium, Wuye, Utako, Life Camp, and Idu.

Mbah apologized to customers for any inconvenience caused by the outage and assured them that power supply would be restored after the maintenance work is completed.

It’s important to note that the TCN Gwagwalada-Kukwaba-Apo 132KV Transmission Line 1 in the Abuja axis was previously vandalized by suspected vandals in December, leading to disruptions in power supply.
