• He claimed he has not been able to understand why the electricity bill was so high

If you thought your electricity bill has gone through the roof, then clearly you have not heard how much Ahmednasir Abdullahi forks out every month to be at peace with Kenya Power.

The top city lawyer, best known by his moniker, The Grand Mullah, revealed his ridiculously high monthly power bills have not been making any sense even to him.

Ahmednasir Abdullahi claimed he was paying Kenya Power and Lighting Company about KSh 250,000 every month for using electricity in his house.

Appearing on Citizen TV on Wednesday, October 18, Abdullahi disclosed he was paying Kenya Power something in the neighbourhood of KSh 250,000 every month for his domestic consumption alone.

"I pay 250,000 per month for electricity in my house and I do not have a factory there," he said as he decried the generally high cost of power in the

According to the senior counsel, the cost of electricity in Kenya is way too high, not just for domestic consumers but also for those in the manufacturing industry.

"When your power is expensive you cannot be competitive in the manufacturing industry," he argued.

This, however, was not the first time Abdullahi protested the cost of electricity.

In July 2018, the affluent and powerful lawyer claimed he paid KSh 220,000 for his home's electricity bill.

The only other well known Kenyan who reportedly pays about the same amount for electricity consumption at his home is former Kiambu County governor, William Kabogo.

"I’ have paid a monthly average of KSh 250,000 for the last one year. Daylight robbery without violence. We kill the monopoly and problem solved..." Kabogo said on June 30, 2018.
