 Mali renames colonial French street names Mali followed Burkina Faso and Niger on Wednesday in renaming streets and squares in its capital to get rid of their French colonial names, AFP reported. Streets bearing the names of members of France's colonial administration have been rebaptised in Bamako, according to a decree by the junta chief. Cedeao Avenue (the French acronym for the Economic Community of West African States or ECOWAS) is also now named after a new strategic confederation that Mali has formed with Burkina Faso and Niger – the Alliance of Sahel States (AES).

 TCN Increases Power Supply to Enugu, Ebonyi, and Parts of Benue States


The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced a significant boost in electricity supply to Enugu, Ebonyi, and parts of Benue States. 


In a statement released on Monday via its official X account, TCN revealed that it has successfully energized a 150MVA 330/132/33kV power transformer at the 330kV New Haven Transmission Substation in Enugu. This upgrade has increased the substation's capacity from 360 MW to 480 MW, allowing Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) to lift more bulk power for distribution to its customers across Enugu, Ebonyi, and parts of Benue.


TCN emphasized that this move enhances the power availability in the region, providing a more reliable supply to the affected states.


This development comes at a time when Nigeria has faced multiple national grid collapses, with the grid having failed at least twelve times in recent months, leading to widespread power outages across the country.
