Malawians should brace themselves for power outages beginning February 24, 2020.

ESCOM Public Relations Officer Innocent Chitosi said the parastatal company has embarked on a four and a half hours load shedding due to insufficient power supply.

Chitosi said Electricity Generation Company Malawi Limited (EGENCO) is still repairing its machines at Kapichira Power Station and diesel generators at Mapanga and Kanengo.

Meanwhile the parastatal company has assured Malawians that it is working closely with Egenco to ensure the problems is resolved.
