A power outage that has persisted for over three months is threatening the safety and well being of more than 100 children at the Baba Nyumbani Children's Home.

The children's home, which shelters orphans, rescued, and vulnerable children, has been operating without electricity since the breakdown of a transformer nearly 90 days ago.

The facility's management says repeated appeals to Kenya Power have fallen on deaf ears, and the consequences are growing more dire each day. "This blackout is not just an inconvenience, it is a crisis.

Our children are living in darkness, exposed to risks, and deprived of basic needs.
