Consequently, she said, both Abuja and Benin Distribution Companies would not be able to offtake bulk power from TCN’s OKENNE, OKPELLA and ITAKPE Transmission Substations for three (3) hours only.

Mrs. Mbah, however, assured that the company would restore bulk electricity supply to the DisCos immediately after the maintenance is completed.

“We regret any inconvenience this may cause electricity consumers served from these substations”, she said.
