There is total blackout in Kaduna as electricity workers join a strike called by the Nigeria Labour Congress, to protest the sacking of civil servants by the state government.

Kaduna Electric Distribution Company (KAEDCO), Head of Corporate Communication, Abdulazeez Abdullahi, in a statement explained that the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has knocked off all its 33KV lines in Kaduna State.

The statement appeals to communities, security agencies and vigilante groups to be weary to prevent vandalism of power supply installations.

“We have the collective responsibility to protect these critical national assets in our neighborhood”, the statement adds.
