According to a statement issued by Dr. Friday Elijah, the Head of Corporate Communications at JED, on Saturday in Jos, this temporary interruption in power supply is being initiated by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).

The purpose of the planned outage is to facilitate installations by the TCN’s Local Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractors.

The statement clarified, “The planned outage by TCN is to ensure the secure connection of the gantry beam of the new APO line to the existing Lafia line-Jos 330kv double circuit.”

During this period, there is expected to be an increased occurrence of load shedding, as the 330KV Jos complex will remain supplied via the Kaduna-Jos 330KV line.

JED expressed its appeal for customers to exercise patience and understanding in the face of this temporary inconvenience. The organization emphasized its commitment to enhancing service quality and reliability.
