The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced a five-hour power interruption in Okpella Town, the Cement Factory and surrounding areas in Edo State due to scheduled maintenance at its Okpella transmission substation.

In a notice issued on Thursday, November 5, 2026, TCN said its maintenance crew would carry out work on the T2 60-megavolt-ampere, 132/33-kilovolt transformer and associated switchgear at the substation.
