Power Holding Company of Nigeria, PHCN Orile Business District, has nabbed two suspected vandals who tried to cart away equipment worth millions of naira belonging to the National Integrated Power Project (NIPP).

The vandals tried to steal the equipment to sabotage the operations of PHCN.

This was disclosed to Vanguard by the Business Manager Orile District, Mr Francis Okosobo-ibe, at the weekend just before handing them over  to the police.

Okosobo-ibe said they caught the vandals trying to steal 11kv busbars belonging to NIPP for project expansion programme that are in the container within the district.

He said it has been the usual practice by vandals as they tried to frustrate their efforts at carrying out effective services to their customers.

“The vandals are always hampering and sabotaging the effort of PHCN,” as this was  not the first time they were carting away PHCN equipment.

He also pleaded with customers for their cooperation and support, by being vigilant in their area to help reduce the effect of the vandals on PHCN equipment.
