@ Wash,
80K? I'll seal my lip, on this one.
But the rationale could be that there are some places where the rates
(consumption per unit) charged are higher. For instance, my friend
tells me when he was staying at South B, the units he was charged were
much higher, than what he's paying at his current location in Ruaka.
>From this, if at all that's the case, Wilson Airport area is a high
unit area than say, Kibera (which is next door).
But still, the logic does not make sense. I thought with pre-pay, the
consumption should have dropped instead of rising. Unfortunately, KPLC
will always keep you guessing.
