Nigeria has achieved a new electricity transmission peak of 4545 mega watts, the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) announced on Tuesday.
According to Seun Olagunju, general manager, public affairs of TCN, the feat was achieved at 9:45pm on Monday.
The previous power transmission peak of 4517MW was attained on December 23, 2012.
TCN management had last week informed consumers that electricity wheeling to the distribution companies had improved to over 4000MW owing to improvement in fuel supply to the power generation plants.

Thanks to GEJ. 6 years of heavy investment we have at least something to show for it. Just when is APC forming a godamn government.
Six years of heavy investment? So why didnt we have half of this last two months? Have you seen PMB re-commissioning any power plant like we had just before election by your hero?Pls park well well. We are trying to forget the years of the locust. Just sincerity of purpose on the part of the leader is forcing people to do their normal job. That was what we never had during GEJ era. May Nigeria never witness such a period again.
We did not have this before because of sabotage to give the impression that the power reform of Jonathan failed. That is why there were incessant blowing of gas pipeline just to paint GEJ black
Just sincerity…….(not laid down infrastructure in last 6 years) makes power transmission hits all time high. You make me laugh.
What nonsense.. As I’m typing this there’s no light in my house.. We all want buhari to succeed but sensationalism won’t help!
If this continues in the next 4yrs, they might be no need to conduct presidential election till 2023.
