Kenya Power has raised the red flag over an upsurge in the theft of transformer fuses in the coast region.
Coast regional manager Hicks Waswa confirmed that seven transformers were vandalised on Tuesday night, leaving at least 1,600 customers without power in Kengeleni, Kongowea (Nyali), Majengo, Tononoka Stadium, Tononoka Hall (Mvita), Chaani and Changamwe.
