Kenya Power has given a clarification for the ‘blackout’ that took place on Tuesday morning 17 July at Milimani Law Courts during the bail hearing for the Kenya Power bosses.
Through their Twitter handle, Kenya Power said that there was no blackout as reported by the media and that the outage was caused by internal wiring.
“Clarification: There has not been a blackout at the Milimani courts as reported by a section of the media. Our technical team has confirmed that electricity to the court is on and that the outage may have been occasioned by internal wiring,” read the statement by Kenya Power.
The suspended Kenya power boss Ken Tarus and 10 other senior managers in the company spend another night in police cells as the court continues hearing arguments for their release on bail.
Here are some of the hilarious reactions after Kenya Power’s clarification;
