Kebbi to Regain Full Power Supply by June 19 as Repairs are Almost Complete
Residents of Kebbi State can expect power to return soon, as the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has confirmed that full electricity supply will be restored on or before Thursday, June 19, 2025. The state has been dealing with a prolonged blackout for nearly two months after major transmission towers on the Kainji–Birnin Kebbi 330kV line collapsed.
The situation worsened when two more towers were brought down by a windstorm in Galadima Village, Shanga Local Government Area, cutting off power to more areas. To ease the pressure, some electricity was temporarily redirected from the Shiroro Power Station in Niger State, but it wasn’t enough to meet the state’s full needs. Many homes and businesses have had to depend on generators and solar energy to get by.
According to TCN, repair work on the damaged towers is now in its final stages. Engineers are working day and night to ensure that the June 19 deadline is met. Once the repairs are complete, Kebbi will be reconnected to the national grid through the Kainji–Birnin Kebbi line, bringing steady power back to the state—just in time to support increased electricity use during the rainy season.
