Minister of Power Joseph Tegbe announced that power supply has been restored to numerous areas previously impacted by disruptions. He provided an update on the power situation in a statement from Abuja on Monday. The areas that have been restored include Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Kwara States, and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Tegbe emphasized that his teams are still working to restore full supply to the remaining affected locations.
Tegbe also reported that the vandalised Benin-Egbin 330 Kilo Volt (kV) power line had been repaired and is now operational. He explained that the restored line would contribute to bringing the total power supply to the Lagos Complex to over 1,000 megawatts, effectively normalizing the situation after the disruption. Tegbe stressed that his team is collaborating with key power sector stakeholders, including generation companies, system operators, transmission companies, and distribution companies, to ensure a sustained and improved availability of power. His primary focus remains on providing reliable electricity to Nigerians.
