According to Idemudia, there are technical and maintenance issues to be resolved on various transmission stations, equipment and devices within Alagbon station.
“We want to inform our esteem customers that from Wednesday, May 24 to Sunday, May 28, there will be an outage within Ikoyi, Victoria Island and part of Lagos Island.
“This is to enable TCN maintenance crew to resolve some technical issues within Alagbon transmission stations.”

He promised that supply would be restored as soon as the maintenance was successfully completed.
