The Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, has announced the restoration of electricity to several areas affected by recent disruptions in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Kwara and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Tegbe disclosed this in an update shared on his Facebook page on Monday, adding that efforts were ongoing to restore supply to other affected locations.
He said the vandalised Benin-Egbin 330kV transmission line had been repaired and returned to service, raising electricity supply to the Lagos Complex to over 1,000 megawatts.
“This restoration helped to bring the total power supply to the Lagos Complex to over 1,000 megawatts, effectively normalizing to the condition before the disruption,” he said.
