The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced the reconnection of the 132KV Owerri-Ahoada transmission back to the grid after the completion of reconstruction by vandals which caused the collapse of four transmission towers of the Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company (PHEDC) which supply electricity to Bayelsa State and parts of Rivers State.
A statement signed by the General Manager, of Public Affairs of the Company, Ndidi Mbah, read “The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has successfully restored bulk power supply through its 132kV Owerri-Ahoada Transmission Line as of April 11, 2025, around 6:00 pm. This comes after completing reconstruction efforts due to vandalism that caused the collapse of four transmission towers.
“With this restoration, the Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company (PHEDC) is now able to supply electricity to Bayelsa State and parts of Rivers State. These areas had been experiencing outages since towers 71 to 74 on the transmission line route were vandalized on March 11, 2025.
“TCN remains dedicated to providing reliable power across the nation and encourages communities to join in the fight against vandalism of critical transmission installations to protect these shared assets.”
