Kenya power cuts: Airports boss sacked as tourists left stranded

Many homes are without electricity since Friday and Nairobi's main airport was plunged into darkness.
www.bbc.com
Alex Gitari was fired by Transport Minister Kipchumba Murkomen, who has apologised for the chaos.

He added that political interference had resulted in a demoralised and disorganised workforce.

The majority state-owned power company has not explained exactly what caused the countrywide power cut.

Power cuts are not unusual in Kenya, but such a lengthy countrywide outage with Nairobi's main airport, hospitals and even State House plunged into darkness is rare.

When things don't run smoothly, Kenyans are quick to point to corruption - the colossal theft of public funds has long held the country back.

The transport minister said two generators procured for the airport two years ago are yet to be commissioned.

Official staff thread disagrees with above, but doesn't look like a typo to me. Time will tell.
 
Let's add some fuel to this, I'm in the mood :laugh:

Bet we get skipped tomorrow morning, then what... was it skipping, or Eskom mixed instructions shyte, or mydorpie dyslexia (5 becoming 2, on two lines) ?

Never a boring moment, lol. But really best I drop mydorpie probably :popcorn:


Edit: Looking again, someone at mydorpie prolly just copied this morning's weird change, without thought :-/
I've written to mydorpie, told them not to bother replying this time.
