Ituculo is an administrative post in
the Monapo district, Nampula province, northern Mozambique, located 15 km from
the district’s main town.
It is an area that suffered damage due
to Cyclone Jude, which occurred in March 2025.
Until now, there have been significant
communication difficulties between the district’s main town and the Ituculo
administrative post. The electricity, which was interrupted by Cyclone Jude,
has still not been restored, as many power poles were knocked down.
Recently, efforts to restore
electricity have been underway, but the process is taking longer than expected
due to a shortage of technicians, as many are deployed in other parts of the
province to assist their colleagues in more affected areas.
Residents of the post are facing
difficulties due to the lack of lighting and are requesting the district to
take action to resolve this situation.
Mozambique Electricity (EDM) issued a
statement saying it is working to restore power in all areas, but noted that
this would be possible only if access conditions allow it.
It was also explained that ten out of
the 19 districts in Nampula and Zambezia had power restored after the damage
caused by Cyclone Jude. (BP)
