The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has called on the Federal Government and the National Assembly to strengthen legal protection for critical electricity infrastructure, saying vandalism, sabotage and encroachment on transmission corridors continue to threaten power supply and investments in the sector.
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of TCN, Engr. Sule Ahmed Abdulaziz, made the call at a four-day Parliamentary/Stakeholders’ Engagement Summit on Power Sector Reforms in Nigeria.
According to him, attacks on transmission facilities have continued to disrupt electricity supply, increase repair costs and undermine efforts to improve service delivery nationwide.
