Electrical safety is a major issue in our cities, and recently, an incident occurred on Garage Avenue, in the Funa district, in the commune of Limete, in Kinshasa. Indeed, an electric cabin caught fire, arousing the concern of the inhabitants.
The origin of the fire remains unknown and residents of the neighborhood have expressed concern over the situation. They appealed to the National Electricity Company (SNEL) to intervene quickly to repair the burned cabin.
It is important to emphasize that this case is unfortunately not isolated. Many neighborhoods in Kinshasa face similar risks due to non-compliant electrical connections and DIY work carried out by unqualified people claiming to be technicians. This situation endangers the safety of the inhabitants and calls for urgent action on the part of the competent authorities.
The National Electricity Company, as an electricity supplier, is responsible for guaranteeing the security and reliability of the electricity network. It is essential that she takes prompt action to repair this cabin and prevent similar incidents in the future.
In conclusion, electrical safety is a crucial subject that must be taken seriously. It is essential that the competent authorities take the necessary measures to ensure the safety of electrical installations and to avoid any incident detrimental to the inhabitants
