Tegbe Announces Restoration of Power Supply in Five States

By our Correspondent

The Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, has announced the restoration of electricity supply to areas affected by recent power disruptions in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Kwara and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Giving an update on the country’s power situation through his verified facebook account on Monday, , Tegbe disclosed that the vandalised 330kV power line at Egbin Power Station had been repaired and restored to service for electricity transmission to the national grid.

“The restoration helped us to bring total power supply to the Lagos complex to over 1,000 megawatts, effectively normalising the situation to pre-disruption levels,” he stated.

The minister said the Federal Government remained committed to ensuring reliable electricity supply across the country.

He added that the government was working with key stakeholders, including generation companies, system operators and transmission companies, to sustain electricity availability nationwide. (GSF)
