The management of Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, has disclosed that it is embarking on a swot up that would assist it in laying underground cables to connect Eko Atlantic with a view to supplying electricity to the modern city.

TCN’s Managing Director, Mr. Usman Gur Mohammed, who disclosed this in Abuja, noted that Eko Atlantic, which is a new coastal city being built on Victoria Island, Lagos, needed urgent electricity connectivity. Eko Atlantic is standing on 10 million square metres of land reclaimed from the ocean and protected by a 9.5 kilometre long sea wall.

Mohammed said further that the management of the Eko Atlantic has approached the TCN to connect them with electricity, noting that the company was making frantic efforts to pass underground cables from Alagbon to Eko Atlantic.
