Lodwar residents heaved a sigh of relief on Thursday following the installation of two power generators that will bring an end to days and nights of power interruptions caused by rationing.
In September, traders in Lodwar stormed the local Kenya Power station, demanding an explanation for the frequent power outages that have plagued the town for over a week.
The business community also raised their plight at the office of the Turkana County commissioner over the power blackouts.
On Thursday Governor Jeremiah Lomorukai, County Commissioner Julius Kavita, Woman Representative Cecilia Ngitit and Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) staff were present during the commissioning and installation of new generators by the Kenya Power in Lodwar.
