The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has terminated four power transmission contracts which it said were delayed because the contractors lacked the capacity, and has engaged its engineers to complete them, Daily Trust reports. The Managing Director of TCN, Mr. Usman Gur Mohammed, disclosed this at the 24th monthly power sector meeting hosted by TCN in Abuja shortly after commissioning a 100MVA transformer at Katampe substation in Abuja.
The terminated projects, he said, were the Walalanbe and Danbatta transmission substation in Kano State and the GIT and Federal LLiod contracts under the Nigeria Electricity and Gas Improvement Programme (NEGIP).
