The utility reminded customers that keeping informed about scheduled maintenance can help reduce inconvenience. Residents in affected areas are encouraged to plan their activities accordingly and take necessary safety precautions during the outage period.
Earlier in the week, Kenya Power had also issued a notice for a planned power interruption in parts of Kiambu County on Thursday, November 13, 2025. Areas affected included Kawaida, Kimorori, Gatatha Farmers, Black Petals, Koba Waters, Taka Taka Solutions, Nazareth Hospital, Sycarmore, Gatoni Village, and surrounding neighbourhoods.
Kenya Power reiterated that planned shutdowns are essential for maintaining and improving the electricity network. The company urged customers to remain alert to updates on their official website and social media channels.
