The Transmission Company of Nigeria has announced the restoration of normal bulk power supply to Eko and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Companies for onward distribution to their customers in Lagos State
In a statement on Tuesday, the TCN Director of Public Affairs, Ndidi Mbah, said the restoration followed the successful repair of a part of the 330-kilovolt Osogbo-Omotosho transmission line between towers 420 to 422.
She said the repair work was completed at 8:55 pm on March 15, 2025.
On March 11, the transmission company confirmed that a major fault on its Omotoso-Ikeja west 330 kV transmission line led to a significant reduction in the electricity supply to Lagos.
The statement read, “The Transmission Company of Nigeria announces the restoration of normal bulk power supply to Eko and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Companies for onward distribution to their customers in Lagos State.
“The restoration follows the successful completion of repair works on a part of the 330kV transmission line, between towers 420 to 422 of the Osogbo-Omotosho line, which was completed at 8:55 pm on Saturday, March 15, 2025. The repair addressed a line snap, restoring lost power and resuming normal bulk transmission.
“Consequently, load shedding caused by the line cut has been stopped.
“TCN appreciates the understanding and cooperation of the Lagos State Government, Eko and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Companies, and electricity consumers in Lagos State during the period of load shedding.”
