The Transmission Company of Nigeria has announced that armed vandals invaded and damaged a 330/132/33 kilovolt, 150 megaamperes power transformer radiator at the ongoing Obajana Transmission Substation.

The spokesperson of TCN, Ndidi Mbah, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday while disclosing that the incident occurred on November 12, 2024.

According to reports from security personnel at the site, the assailants opened fire indiscriminately, causing the guards to flee as well as causing damage to a 150MVA 330/132/33kV power transformer, already positioned on its plinth, resulting in a burst radiator.

Recall that in the past months, TCN has reported several vandalization incidents at its facilities across the country.

Barely three days ago, TCN also initiated the blackout in Lokoja Kogi State due to the vandalization of Lokoja-Gwagwalada 330 kilovolt transmission line 1.
