Spokesman of TCN, Ndidi Mbah, while giving an update in a statement said : “we have begun addressing the identified weaknesses in the transmission system.

“However, it is important to note that while these repairs and improvements are underway, some degree of instability in the system is likely to persist until all major works are completed.

“We acknowledge the impact of these disruptions and ask for the understanding and patience of the public during this challenging period.

“The company remains committed to improving the reliability of electricity supply, recognizing the vital role that stable power plays in Nigeria’s socio-economic development.

“We assure the public that all necessary measures are being taken to ensure the grid’s long-term stability, in line with the recommendations of the investigative committee, while also addressing infrastructure damage such as vandalized transmission lines.

Mbah said the latest grid disturbance happened approximately at 11:29am this morning, caused by a sudden rise in frequency from 50.33Hz to 51.44Hz.

He said : “Recovery efforts began immediately, and the Abuja Axis was restored within 28 minutes. Recovery is still ongoing.

“The frequency spike was caused by issues encountered at one of our substations, which had to be shut down to prevent further complications.

“In addition to this, we are actively engaged in significant repair work on several critical transmission lines and substations.

“This includes the 330kV transmission lines along the Shiroro–Mando axis, major upgrades at the Jebba Transmission Substation, and the restoration of the second Ugwuaji–Apir 330kV transmission line.”
