RESTORATION OF OWORONSHOKI 132/33kV TRANSMISSION SUBSTATION’S TRANSFORMER

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) hereby informs the public that the TR1 60MVA transformer at the Oworonshoki Transmission Substation, which was out of service due to heavy flooding at the station, has been successfully restored by TCN’s maintenance crew at exactly 0753hrs of 30th june 2026.

Power supply has now been restored to Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company (IKEDC) for onward distribution to customers within the affected axis, as all feeders radiating from the station are now back in service.

TCN assures the public of its continued commitment to maintaining a reliable and stable transmission network.

DECLARATION OF FORCE MAJEURE ON OWORONSHOKI 132/33kV AND LEKKI 330/132kV TRANSMISSION SUBSTATIONS

The Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN hereby declares force majeure on Oworoshoki 132/33kV and Lekki 330/132kV Transmission Substations as a result of flooding caused by continuous rainfall in Lagos.

Although Lekki 132kV Transmission Substation is still in service as water is continuously being pumped out of the station, Oworonshoki Transmission Substation on the other hand is presently not in service as the level of water has affected two power transformers, TR1- 60MVA and TR3- 30MVA that tripped on no load even after attempted restoration.

Presently, all power protection and control cables of the two power transformers are submerged inside water, and efforts to evacuate the water have proved ineffective as the rain continues to fall.

Our engineers are working doing everything possible to evacuate the flood to enable them test the transformers for restoration.

TCN regrets any inconvenience this might cause Eko DisCo's customers taking supply from the substation.

Know this: The Lagos State Ministry of Environment and Water Resources has a budget of ₦236 billion.

The government is taxing you to swim to work.

Lagos is once again being ravaged by flood waters. Homes flooded, businesses shut, with widespread damage to lives and property. Yet again, this is being attributed to flash flooding and, predictably, fingers are being pointed at residents disposing waste irresponsibly. This however does not tell the whole story. In many cases, what we are seeing are the effects of a long-standing failure in Environmental Governance by leadership at State and Federal levels.

As one case in point, the attached images are extracts from the report of the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) on the Coastal Road contract awarded to Hi-Tech. My legal team obtained it from BPP in 2024 as part of our public and legal challenge of the alarming lack of due process in the award of that contract.

The report indicates that no EIA was made available to the BPP at the time of its review. In addition, the breakdown of the contract award shows a sum of N400 million included for the Environmental Impact assessment as part of Hi-Tech’s N1.1 trillion contract for Section 1 of the road.

There are at least two significant problems with this:

1. It shows that the road contract was specified, designed, costed and awarded (and it subsequently commenced) without an EIA having first been properly done to assess and incorporate Environmental Concerns.
2. For such a project, the EIA should not be procured through the contractor building the road (Hi-Tech) as part of its contract, as there is an obvious conflict of interest in those roles that could undermine the independence of the EIA and impair the objectivity of its conclusions.

In light of these, the unfortunate escalating floods being witnessed in areas adjoining the coastal road, as recently admitted by the Lagos State Commissioner of the Environment, while tragic, should not come as a surprise.

I call for a proper independent investigation, prompt remediation measures and provision for fair compensation for losses suffered by residents and property owners with resettlement assistance as appropriate, where failure to follow due process and adhere to the Environmental Impact Assessment laws is established to have contributed to or caused the severe hardship being endured by affected communities.

A compassionate and responsible Government will ensure, that no contract — federal or state, however large, however politically connected — is awarded and executed without complying with the environmental safeguards that our laws provide to protect and preserve the welfare and well-being of our people.

🚨⚠️ OFFICIAL: Chelsea statement on Enzo Maresca.

“Chelsea FC appreciates the 2025/26 season was a hugely disappointing one for the Club and its supporters. A major contributing factor was the disruption caused as a result of changes that the Club was forced to make to the Head Coach position over the Christmas period”.

“Due to recent developments, we consider that it is important to explain to our supporters what happened and why our former Head Coach left the Club on 1 January 2026”.

“In Autumn last year, the Club was informed by our former Head Coach that there might be an opportunity for him to succeed Pep Guardiola at the end of the season”.

“It became clear to us that it was his strong desire to succeed Guardiola and that he was fully committed to pursuing the opportunity, despite the fact he was under a long-term contract which he had no right to terminate”.

“In December 2025, our Head Coach unexpectedly and abruptly resigned from his position. Obviously, we felt let down as we believed that his head and heart were focused on another club and another opportunity, despite having just arrived at Chelsea the year before”.

“No club wants to change its head coach midway through a season. However, in light of his decision not to continue fulfilling his responsibilities through to the end of the season, the Club was left with no choice but to protect our players, our supporters, and the Badge and accept his resignation”.

“In the circumstances and given the mutual respect between clubs, a confidential settlement has been reached with Manchester City, which includes the payment of compensation. A confidential settlement has also been reached with the former Head Coach under which he will pay compensation”.

Today’s rain in Lagos is unforgiving!

Kai……no amount of storm water drainage or canals can cushion the effects! Praying for many Lagosians 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[Ex-Grammaton Cleric @OtunbaBrickz]

Una see say these people dey mad!

Hire more sanitation workers, No!
buy more garbage trucks, No!
build more landfills and incinerators, No!

But the couldn’t hesitate to jump straight to enforcement!

The waste in my house has been piling up for months, PSP hasn’t come to pick it up and I’ve never missed a payment infact I’ve paid for a full year ahead. I live in Lekki o mind you, if they aren’t coming to pick up the thrash in Lekki for months it’s not far fetched to assume they haven’t picked up the dirt in Abule Egba in years, but sanitation police is the solution the army of halfwits in Alausa can think of!

Fucking idiots!

[Ossy Vincent @ossynoya]

So if Lagosians hadn’t started complaining and posting pictures online, the Lagos State Government and the governor wouldn’t have known that the city is filthy and that heaps of garbage have been piling up across Lagos?

The level of incompetence is staggering. Must citizens always remind the government to do the most basic parts of its job??????????
