The U.S. Embassy Nairobi Monday, cancelled all their appointments with the consular section at U.S due to power outage.

Due to a power outage, all appointments with the consular section at U.S. Embassy Nairobi on March 2, 2020 are cancelled. The Embassy will contact applicants to reschedule canceled appointments. We sincerely regret the inconvenience. — U.S. Embassy Nairobi (@USEmbassyKenya) March 2, 2020

Kenyans however expressed their opinions following the tweet by the embassy others questioning why such a big organization does not have a backup generator.

Here are reactions from Kenyans on twitter.

 

So shame to kenya. After 60 years of independence Nairobi the capital still suffers power outage???? — Hassan Ahmed (@Gocosh_Ahmed) March 2, 2020

I highly doubt it’s a power issue. A whole US Embassy can’t be without a power back up.
But anyway, what do I even know about embassies — ????????WAIHARO???????? (@MrWaiharo) March 2, 2020

How comes a big embassy like you, you can't afford a generator and the way you charge a lot for interviews — kamau wambui (@joewambo) March 2, 2020

You must have rejected a visa application by a very senior employee @KenyaPower_Care. He had to suspend your reggae. — gauo???????? (@gauogilbert) March 2, 2020

There's no a backup generator united states of America over 20 trillion GDP????,no no no,I doubt if this is an official tweeter account of u.s embassy Nairobi,no, can't be. — George otieno onyango (@Georgeotienoon7) March 2, 2020

There's a bigger reason. Power outage is just being polite. — Kimathi Njoka (@KimanthiNjoka) March 2, 2020
