“This is due to a planned power shutdown by the UMEME team, in a bid to improve power supply at the Ggaba Power Station,” the statement read.

The affected areas include Ggaba, Muyenga, Kampala CBD, and other surrounding neighborhoods. NWSC advised customers to store water and use it sparingly, as it will take time for the system to stabilize after the plant shutdown.
