The Managing Director of TCN, Mr Mohammed Usman, made the disclosure at a news conference in Abuja on Friday.
“We have sent our team of engineers to go and investigate, we normally investigate this kind of disturbances,’’ he said. “It does not mean that our grid has become disturbance free, because our grid is still very fragile. It is a journey that we are in that will take us to have a modern and stabilised grid.
“For example, what happened in Apo recently, where we had a transformer that got burnt, we restored supply in two hours, because we had N-1 in that substation and that is what we are trying to achieve in all the country,” he said. “The one for World Bank, we just launched the project, but the equipment has not arrived, so we are on a journey,’’ he said.
