The Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) has scheduled daily eight- hour power outages affecting two significant transmission lines within its service area.
As per a public announcement from the company, the power interruption will impact the Mando-Kumbotso 330kV line from January 17 through April 17, 2026, and the Shiroro-Mando 330kV line from January 17 to February 17, 2026.
These outages are expected to occur on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
KEDCO clarified that the outages are essential to allow the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) to begin the installation of Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) as part of the Nigeria Electricity Transmission Project.
The company reassured its customers that some locations might remain unaffected as electricity will be supplied from alternate sources during this time.
In their public notice, they expressed, “We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to ensure a more reliable electricity supply across our franchise area.”
