 Abia Govt Distributes 53 Transformers to Rural Communities to Boost Electricity Supply


The Abia State Government has begun distributing 53 newly procured transformers to various communities across the state to enhance electricity supply.


According to a statement from Divine Nwankwo, Head of the Information Department at Government House, Umuahia, the first batch was allocated to 11 communities on Tuesday.
