The General Manager of the Bauchi region of Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), Engineer Idris Alim, has said electricity had been fully restored to Maiduguri, the Borno State capital; four months after 132 KVA “power lines and transmissions stations” were destroyed by Boko Haram insurgents along the 87-kilometre Maiduguri-Damboa road.
He said besides the June 3, 2015, insurgents’ cut off of power lines, several attempts were made by Yola Electricity Distribution Company (YEDC), to fix the destroyed power lines early this year, but lamented that the insurgents continued to destroy them.
