Transmission Lines Cut Impacts Bulk Power Supply To Lagos State
By Daniel Dafe
The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has said that transmission lines snap occurred between Towers 420 to 422 on the Omotoso-Ikeja West 330kV transmission line on Saturday, March 9, 2025.
Ndidi Mbah, GM, Public Affairs, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.
Adding: “The lines cut has resulted in a reduction of approximately 350MW of bulk electricity supply to Lagos area affecting both Eko and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Companies,” saying that “this temporary drop in bulk power supply has caused significant load shedding within the Eko and Ikeja franchise areas.”

TCN apologised for any inconvenience caused to the government, Eko and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Companies, and electricity consumers in Lagos State.
