The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has successfully restored three towers that collapsed along the 330kV Kainji-Birnin Kebbi transmission line on Wednesday, May 7, 2025. 

The collapse was caused by a heavy wind that brought down the towers at approximately 5:35 pm.

To put back the towers, TCN mobilized three separate contractors to the site, each assigned to handle the reconstruction of one tower. 

This strategic deployment was to accelerate the restoration process and minimize downtime on the line.

In the meantime, efforts have been made to cushion the impact of the disruption in bulk power supply to Kaduna DisCo, which affected some of its customers. 

Sokoto and Birnin Kebbi are currently receiving between 6 MW and 7 MW of bulk electricity from the Mando Transmission substation via the 132kV Mando-Zaria-Funtua-Gusau-Talata Mafara-Sokoto-Birnin Kebbi line.

“TCN appreciates the patience and understanding of the affected communities,” said Ndidi Mbah, General Manager, Public Affairs, TCN, in a statement, on Saturday.

We regret the inconvenience caused by the tower collapse and are committed to restoring full supply as quickly as possible.
