@KeEquityBank what's with *247# today, ama imechukua holiday pia?

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson basically your officers are weaponizing fecal matter

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson sewerage cartels are a new phenomenon in Nairobi county and if you think the water version were bad, these ones make them look like choir boys

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson several people are going through the same fate and this has created a lucrative opportunity for people in the sewerage department

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson What you see is raw sewerage in my parent's compound. People in the relevant department are often as responsive as your handle here or demanding money to fix the manhole that creates this mess when contacted.

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson when we contact relevant departments, we are given personal contacts. These people play games where they take days to show up and when they do, it is with demands for cash.

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson the desperation created by the situation makes it hard not to resist the extortion but now the situation is worse because the clogging has become quite frequent even in fair weather

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson it is suspected that now they are now causing blockages themselves

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson the people tasked with the role of unclogging sewerage have turned this into a business, demanding cash to do what they're paid to do.

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@SakajaJohnson the number of people in Nairobi wading in raw sewerage right in their own homes or compound is unprecedented because of the current rains.

@AIRTEL_KE And in all fairness, I got double for my trouble which I'm very happy about.

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@AIRTEL_KE Yes it was, thanks.

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@AIRTEL_KE @jnmuts You've been saying this since Monday

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@AIRTEL_KE @WambuiMuchiri_ Premium tears loading, go to replies on their page and see how many people they stiffed this week.

[John Ihiga @ihiga]

@CA_Kenya 24 hours after posting this, it looks like @AIRTEL_KE are not going to respond. Kindly advise on how I can lodge a formal complaint with you as the regulator, on this matter. Those of us that bought services essentially lost money.

@ihiga @AIRTEL_KE Good morning @ihiga, apologies for the inconvenience. @AIRTEL_KE, please let's get to the bottom of this matter . ^DM
