KENYA POWER WARNS PUBLIC AGAINST CONMEN IMPERSONATING CEO SIROR

Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) has issued a stern warning to the public against fraudsters impersonating the company’s Managing Director and CEO, Dr. Eng. Joseph Siror, in a scheme to solicit bribes and illegal favours.
In an official statement, KPLC said it has received reports of individuals falsely claiming to act on behalf of the CEO to defraud unsuspecting Kenyans. The company emphasized that Dr. Siror is not involved in any direct customer transactions and that all official dealings should be conducted through authorized KPLC offices and platforms.
“We wish to caution the public against engaging with anyone purporting to be the CEO or acting on his behalf,” the statement read. “Kenya Power maintains a zero-tolerance policy on bribery, corruption, and fraudulent activities.”
The utility urged customers to verify the identity of any person claiming to represent the company through the *977# service or by contacting official customer care channels. Payments should only be made via recognized methods such as M-Pesa, Airtel Money, bank transfers, or at designated KPLC banking halls.
KPLC has encouraged victims or those approached by the fraudsters to report the incidents to the nearest police station or Kenya Power offices.
The company reaffirmed its commitment to transparency, accountability, and service integrity as it continues efforts to modernize and secure its operations.
