Though the company has not yet issued a statement on the outage, it says via its Twitter handle that it has noted the problem and it is addressing it with utmost urgency. Sof if you are wondering why you are unable to make Mpesa transactions, check your airtime balance, make calls or even send text messages. Hopefully, Safaricom will sort this out soon.
