Power Outage To Hit Several States
Electricity users across Plateau State, Gombe State, Bauchi State, Borno State, Adamawa State, Taraba State and Yobe State have been warned of an extended blackout following a planned shutdown of a key transmission line.
The development was announced by the Nigerian Independent System Operator as part of ongoing work on the national grid.
The disruption will affect customers connected to the Jos–Gombe 330kV line, which serves as a major supply route in the North-East and parts of the North-Central region.
The outage is expected to last for several weeks while maintenance and upgrade works are carried out.
Officials said the shutdown is necessary to ensure long-term stability of power supply across the affected areas.
The exercise is expected to improve transmission capacity and reduce future system faults once completed.
Residents and businesses in the impacted states have been advised to make alternative arrangements during the period, as supply interruptions may be prolonged before normal service is restored.
