KENYA POWER AND LIGHTING COMPANY TURNING OUT TO BE A USELESS COMPANY
The whole of this week power has been on and off where i live and sometimes going off for 3/4 of the day.They are becoming so unreliable i thought they would never become like the other useless and unreliable company known as NAIROBI WATER COMPANY.

Just learn to live with them coz there is no option for the next 50yrs. "Don't let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning."

And we are dreaming of vision 2030 and a nairobi metropolis when they can't even provide decent power now.

there is no warning at all, power just goes off. i think there should be some law to compell them to give reliable electricity and compensate for lost business or damaged appliances if the reason they are going on and off without warning is not satisfactory. we need to demand for better services from kplc and not just learning to live with that as someone puts it, afterall they are so fast at disconnecting you if you don't pay the bill.

@Shonagal, I agree with you 100%. If we all make a collective noise eventually something has got to give. But alas, many do have the attitude of "just live with it" hence there is no "collectiveness" per se.

@Dash yes, that's the spirit. we need to demand for our money's worth.

i think that if we could make some small steps to ensure efficiency and we become serious about provision of reliable electricity, then we could well dream on about vision 2030.it really beats me how electricity could be on and off(your bulb at home almost does what disco lights do) for a whole 4 days and there is not even an explanation from the power company. kenya power company is actually making our lives difficult and costly too.

What are our consumer rights here? Some countries have them.

I wish what happened to the postal corporation of kenya would happen to kenya power, they are so fast now when giving you a p.o.box number after having realised they are soon going to be irrelevant with the advent of email etc.
