Parts of Kenya have been hit with a blackout attributed to a system disturbance, barely three weeks after a similar blackout left businesses counting losses.

“We have lost bulk power supply to various parts of the country due to a system disturbance and we are working to restore normalcy within the shortest time possible,” said Kenya Power in a statement on Thursday.

The firm said it will issue an update on the restoration progress in due course.
The blackout follows the power outage that hit Nairobi, Mount Kenya and coastal regions early this month causing disruption to businesses.

Kenya Power also attributed the blackout to a system disturbance.

Unajua tofauti ya outage na rationing?
 
Nendeni mkahangaike na wale mfupa na ngozi kule kismayu, muhozi hamumuwezi
 
Unajua power rationing ni nini kweli wewe?
 
Wewe nawe, you can’t use common sense?
Yaani mpo 55M na uwezo wenu mnazalisha hardly 2000MW, kwanini unahitaji ushahidi kwa mgao wa umeme?
Shikana na huyo mwenzako uniletee ushahidi sitaki longolongo
 
Nilijua tu utajibaraguza. Nyie nyang'au tumeshawazoea. Endeleeni kujidanganya.
Bongolala msiwe watu ambao hawakosolewi. Power rationing na power outage ni vitu viwili tofauti na zote zinasababishwa na vitu tofauti.

Power rationing inatokana na nchi kutokuwa na umeme wa kutosha kutimiza mahitaji ya watumizi on a daily basis. Matokeo yake ni umeme kupewa kwa mgao. Power outage nayo ni ukosefu wa stima in certain areas for a certain period of time say an hour, two hours, half a day, a whole day or two days na husababishwa mostly na technical issues au mitambo za kusambaza umeme kuwa na shida fulani. This can be caused by natural calamities kama Upeo kukata nyaya za kusambaza stima and such kind of things. Usijifanye muelewa na hakuna kitu unaelewa
