”Twitter may not be loading for some of you –– we’re working on a fix to get you back to your timelines ASAP.” it said in a tweet.
So yeah, it’s not your ISP, Twitter was/is down. Hopefully, this is sorted out soon so that you can continue following the results of the Kenyan elections.

Twitter says the outage was due to an internal systems change that didn’t go as planned. The change has been rolled back and now your tweets should be loading as expected.
We fixed it! We made an internal systems change that didn't go as planned and have rolled it back. Twitter should now be loading as expected. Sorry about that!
