Kenya has been facing a delay in clearing goods through customs because of a power failure since May 10 at the Kenya Revenue Authority’s data center, said Kennedy Onyonyi, the agency’s spokesman.
The organization doesn’t expect to lose revenue because of the outage, which was caused by scheduled maintenance as they attempted to install a power back-up system, Onyonyi told reporters today in the capital, Nairobi. The outage “interrupted KRA online services” and is expected to return to normal by the end of the day, he said.
