Power Outage Expected in Parts of Southwestern Nigeria Due to Grid Maintenance​

Electricity consumers in Ijebu-Ode and surrounding areas in Ogun State, Nigeria, will experience a temporary disruption to their power supply on Friday due to scheduled maintenance work on critical transmission infrastructure.​

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) announced that engineers will carry out annual preventive maintenance on the Sagamu/Ijebu-Ode 132kV line switchgear equipment.

The exercise is scheduled to run for three hours, between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM local time.​During the service period, the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) will be unable to receive power along the route to supply its local customers.

​TCN apologized for the disruption, noting that the routine servicing is essential to ensure long-term grid stability and prevent system failures.

Full power restoration is expected shortly after the maintenance work wraps up at 1:00 PM.
