The safaricom network has been very erratic over the last few weeks I can say the least. at any one location there has been more signal flactuation than usual. this am sure directly affects your mobiles power usage, even at standby as it tries to negotiate for a higher signal strength. this has the effect of reducing the battery standby time.
Call it bashing if you want, but I complained about this in June this year. At certain locations, Safaricom signal behaves as if "it comes by wind" one minute the signal strength bar is full, the next minute nothing, no network. A case of simply pure poor network engineering. Problem is - missed calls = lost revenue, but hey they make enough (no too much) already...
