The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) has apologised for the recent power outages affecting parts of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and Nasarawa State.
According to AEDC in an update on X, the disruptions are due to the ongoing relocation of the 33kV Airport feeder and 132kV Kukwaba/Apo Transmission Line Towers by the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA).
Additionally, the recent vandalism of Transmission Company of Nigeria’s (TCN) 132kV lines 1 and 2 underground cables from Katampe to the AT5 Central Area Transmission Station has also contributed to the outages.
“We deeply regret the recent power outages affecting parts of the FCT and Nasarawa.
“These disruptions are connected to the ongoing relocation of the 33kV Airport feeder and 132kV Kukwaba/Apo Transmission Line Towers by the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) and the recent incident of vandalism of TCN’s 132kV lines 1 and 2 underground cables from Katampe to the AT5 Central Area Transmission Station,” the Distribution company said
AEDC assured that it is working closely with relevant stakeholders to address the challenges and restore stable power supply as soon as possible.
“We are working diligently with all relevant stakeholders to address these challenges and ensure the restoration of stable power supply as swiftly as possible.
“We remain committed to minimizing disruptions and sincerely appreciate your understanding as we navigate through this situation together”.
