Two 330 KVA electricity transmission towers in Yobe State were destroyed by Boko Haram insurgents, leaving Borno without light.
According to Dungus Abdulkarim, the command’s spokesperson, power was transmitted from Gombe to Borno and Yobe via transmission towers.
It was assumed that the assailants destroyed the facilities early on Saturday, February 24, using homemade explosives.
Abdulkarim said;
“The transmission towers are located in Kasaisa in Damaturu Local Government Area of the state and supply electricity from Gombe to Yobe and Borno. The destruction has plunged residents of the two states into darkness.”
These tower attacks are the second in three months; the first occurred in December and the repair work was completed in January. [CONTINUE READING HERE]
