Consumers and businesses that have been affected by disruption of critical internet services caused by yesterday's removal of ICT infrastructure and fibre optic cables mounted on Kenya Power poles within Nairobi County are encouraged to contact their service providers for updates and support.
The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) in a statement last evening responding to Nairobi County's disconnection of fibre optic infrastructure has called for restraint and respect of public interest even as they worked towards an amicable solution.
This follows a standoff between Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) and Nairobi County over unpaid electricity bills owed by the county to KPLC and vice versa.
According to Nairobi County management, KPLC owes the County approximately Sh4.8 billion in annual way leave fees even as it has acknowledged its own pending electricity bill to KPLC, which stands at approximately Sh113 million.
