“An improved supply of electricity by Yola Disco in Yobe state has laid off electricity generating set mechanics & cell phones rechargers in Damaturu & environs... the state capital connected recently to the newly-completed 330 KVA electricity station...” dailytrust.com.ng/improved-elect…
November 2018: “Since the completion of the 330KVA transmission line to Damaturu, we have had steady power supply with high voltage. President Buhari has fulfilled our dreams and promoted our businesses...” google.com/amp/s/leadersh…
TCN: “Damaturu Substation was awarded in 2006 with the completion period of 24 months. From 2006 to 2018, the job was not completed. We had to enter and takeover and in one month, we completed and energised the place.” google.com/amp/s/www.peop…
TCN: “By energizing Damaturu, we succeeded in energising Maiduguri also. Maiduguri was completed, but because Damaturu was in and out, Maiduguri could not get supply until we completed Damaturu.” google.com/amp/s/www.peop…
TCN: “So we have successfully completed 2 x 330kva substations in the NorthEast. It means that this government has successfully put 100% of such capacity in the Northeast.” google.com/amp/s/www.peop…
TCN: “Before now, the whole of the northeast has only two 330KVA substations, that is the 330KVA in Yola and the 330kva in Gombe. Now with the completion of Damaturu and Maiduguri, we have put 100% of such capacity in the Northeast.” google.com/amp/s/www.peop…
Now look at this story from November 2008, TEN YEARS AGO:
“Gombe-Damaturu-Maiduguri Power Line to Be Completed 2009”
The project has JUST been completed, in 2018, doubling electricity transmission capacity in Northeast Nigeria.
TCN quietly doing very good work, nationwide.

TCN says it’s now able to wheel 8,100MW of electricity. Capacity was around 5,000MW in 2015. Since 2016 they’ve completed dozens of substations and lines around the country. Really amazing how much they’ve managed to do. Now up to DisCos to catch up. google.com/amp/s/www.peop…
For those looking for context about the Administration’s power sector Programme and policies, here’s a summary: medium.com/@BuhariOsinbaj…
Work going on on multiple fronts: TCN, REA, NERC, FMPWH itself. And there’s an increasing focus on off-Grid solutions, and on solar energy
