TCN’s spokesperson, Ndidi Mbah, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday.

She explained that the outage, which is scheduled between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Tuesday, was due to maintenance of TCN’s 60 Mega Volt Ampere power transformers at the 132/33kV Uyo Transmission Substation.

Areas affected are Abak, Ikot-Ekpene, Afaha Ube, and Idoro.

“The Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, announces scheduled maintenance on one of its 60MVA power transformers at the 132/33kV Uyo Transmission Substation on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
