Zambia’s power utility company, ZESCO Limited, has announced the restoration of power supply to several areas in Kanyama and Makeni, Lusaka, which were disconnected due to flooding.
The affected areas had been without power as a precautionary measure to prevent electrical hazards.
In a statement on Sunday, March 2, 2025, ZESCO said power had been restored to Garden House, CK Marble, Garden Park, BMN, Rosedale, and Kalundu Township, among other areas.
However, it added that some areas, including Y-Road, Farm 55 Road, and Mbasela Road, remained without power due to safety concerns.
According to ZESCO, its technical teams are continuing to assess these areas, and power would be restored once it is safe to do so.
In the meantime, ZESCO advised customers to exercise caution when using electrical equipment in flooded areas and to stay away from fallen power lines.
The power utility company reminded customers to treat all electricity supply lines as live, as supply may be restored at any time.
ZESCO Limited has reassured customers that it is working to restore power to all affected areas as quickly and safely as possible.
