The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced that it has successfully restored the 330kV Shiroro–Mando Transmission Line 1, a move expected to supply uninterrupted electricity to Kaduna residents.

The line, according to TCN, was restored at approximately 3:27 p.m. on Saturday, February 14, 2026, following the completion of repair works undertaken by TCN’s engineers.

With the restoration of Line 1, bulk power supply to Kaduna Electric has significantly improved, and power supply constraints previously experienced in Kaduna have been alleviated.

Meanwhile, repair works are ongoing on the 330kV Shiroro–Mando Transmission Line 2, and, barring any unforeseen circumstances, restoration of Line 2 will be completed soon. This, TCN said, will further strengthen network redundancy and overall system reliability.

TCN therefore used the occasion to appreciate the patience, understanding and co-operation of its customers and stakeholders throughout the crisis period and remains firmly committed to delivering stable and efficient transmission service nationwide.
