City Council Retaliates On Kenya Power After Electricity Disconnection

City council askaris have gone on rampage at the central business district of Nairobi clamping Kenya Power vehicles after their power was disconnected at City Hall.

The askaris watched as the Kenya power vehicles were towed away. The Kenya power however insisted that they had paid for parking in advance.

Kenyans on twitter did not sympathize with Kenya power saying that the parastatal deserved what was being done to them as they had stolen from the common ‘mwananchi’ through inflated power bills.

Does this mean @KenyaPower ,@KenyaPower_Care also feel the pain the same way we do when you over charge and tax us? They should have towed all you vehicles including the one for MD.???

The clamping of the cars was seen as a retaliation after the power was disconnected.
