TCN Engages Kaduna Leaders to Combat Vandalism Risks

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) is actively engaging traditional leaders in Kaduna to address issues of vandalism and Right-of-Way encroachment. This initiative, led by Engr.

Nasir Mansur Fada, the General Manager of TCN's Kaduna region, involves a sensitization campaign aimed at local communities. The campaign includes visits to prominent traditional leaders, such as the first Sarkin Mando, Alhaji Sani Musa, and the district head of Rigasa, Arch Aminu Moham Idri.

TCN's efforts are focused on mitigating the risks associated with illegal constructions beneath high tension transmission lines, which pose significant health and safety hazards, including the risk of electrocution. Engr.

Fada emphasized that individuals encroaching on these areas do so at their own risk, and TCN will not be liable for any accidents resulting from such actions. The broader implications of vandalism and Right-of-Way violations threaten the stability and reliability of bulk electricity supply across the region and the nation.
