KENYA: Nyani azima 'swichi' ya umeme wa nchi nzima kwa saa 4, aliangukia mashine na kusababisha hitilafu ya takriban megawati 180

Nyani mmoja ametajwa kuhusika na ukatikaji wa umeme kwa saa kadhaa huko nchini Kenya baada ya kukutwa akiwa katika eneo lenye swichi kuu baada ya tukio kutokea.

Kampuni ya kuzalisha umeme nchini Kenya imesema wenda nyani huyo ndiye aliyezima umeme eneo lote la Kenya.

================================

Power generating company KenGen has disclosed the cause of the countrywide power outage experienced for the better part of Tuesday.

According to a statement by KenGen, a monkey tampered with machinery at Gitaru Power Station after it dropped onto a transformer.

"At 1129 hours this morning, a monkey climbed on the roof of Gitaru Power Station and dropped onto a transformer tripping it,” read the statement.

Normal operations were, nonetheless, restored after four hours though it remained unclear how the monkey managed to get past the electric fence and survived.

The Gitaru Power Station is the biggest in terms of installed capacity and satisfies a fifth of the country's power needs with its 225 MW peak power generation.

The outage reportedly led to loss of billions of shillings among the business community across the country with the service industry being the most affected.

Currently, a bill is before parliament that seeks to compel Kenya Power to pay consumers in case a blackout occurs for over three hours in a day.

The blackout caught the attention of international media outlets after it affected major parts of the country.

Kwani KENGEN ya Nakuru, Nairobi au Kenya?

Mkuu, yaani generator ndo zinazalisha umeme kutosheleza mahitaji ya nchi nzima !!! Basi ni lazima kuna noise pollution katika nchi hiyo, kwa sababu kila mtu/familia/kampuni ina generator yake !!

In Kenya the power grid is linked together on central system, therefore a trip in one substation causes an overload in the next and it becomes a chain reaction. Before you know it much of the country is without power. Haya mambo yako very common kwenye centrally managed power grids. Kwa mfano, hii hapa map ya US ambapo outages nyingi husababishwa na squirrels

Monkeys In The News: Women In Kenyan Village Are Sexually Harrased By Monkey Troop



hatari sana



A troop of vervet monkeys is giving Kenyan villagers long days and sleepless nights, destroying crops and causing a food crisis.
Earlier this month, local MP Paul Muite urged the Kenyan Wildlife Service to help contain their aggressive behaviour.
But Mr Muite caused laughter when he told parliament that the monkeys had taken to harassing and mocking women in a village.
But this is exactly what the women in the village of Nachu, just south-west of Kikuyu, are complaining about.
They estimate there are close to 300 monkeys invading the farms at dawn. They eat the village's maize, potatoes, beans and other crops.
And because women are primarily responsible for the farms, they have borne the brunt of the problem, as they try to guard their crops.
They say the monkeys are more afraid of young men than women and children, and the bolder ones throw stones and chase the women from their farms.
Nachu's women have tried wearing their husbands' clothes in an attempt to trick the monkeys into thinking they are men - but this has failed, they say.
"When we come to chase the monkeys away, we are dressed in trousers and hats, so that we look like men," resident Lucy Njeri told the BBC News website
"But the monkeys can tell the difference and they don't run away from us and point at our breasts. They just ignore us and continue to steal the crops."
In addition to stealing their crops, the monkeys also make sexually explicit gestures at the women, they claim.
"The monkeys grab their breasts, and gesture at us while pointing at their private parts. We are afraid that they will sexually harass us," said Mrs Njeri.
The Kenyan Wildlife Service told the BBC that it was not unusual for monkeys to harass women and be less afraid of them than men, but they had not heard of monkeys in Kenya making sexually explicit gestures as a form of communication to humans.
The predominantly farming community is now having to receive famine relief food.
The residents report that the monkeys have killed livestock and guard dogs, which has also left the villagers living in fear, especially for the safety of their babies and children.
All the villagers' attempts to control the monkeys have failed - the monkeys evade traps, have lookouts to warn the others of impending attacks and snub poisoned food put out by the residents.
"The troop has scouts which keep a lookout from a vantage point, and when they see us coming, they give warning signals to the ones in the farms to get away," said another area resident, Jacinta Wandaga.
The town has been warned by the Kenya Wildlife Service not to harm or kill any of the monkeys, as it is a criminal offence.
Running out of options, residents are harvesting their crops early in an attempt to salvage what they can of this year's crop.
Unfortunately, this only invites the monkeys to break into their homes and steal the harvested crops out of their granaries.
Even the formation of a "monkey squad" to keep track of the monkeys' movements and keep them out has failed.
The area is simply too large for the few volunteers to cover, they say.
Some residents have lost hope and abandoned their homes and farms, but those who have stayed behind, like 80-year-old James Ndungu, are making a desperate plea for assistance.
"For God's sake, the government should take pity on us and move these monkeys away because we do not want to abandon our farms," he said.
"I beg you, please come and take these animals away from here so that we can farm in peace."

alafu juzi eti wanatuambia eti aina hio hio ya monkiey aliangukukia transformar ya station inayo sambaxa 180MW na inaconnect grid zengine kama central station... huyo monkey alipita electric fence na akaenda straight hadi pale stima inaeza zima na akajiangusha hapo na akazima stima yote hata hio ya electric fence ili monkey wengine waingie....... hehehe


ni kweli hii ndo rise of planet Apes
