Tanesco cuts power at Rev Rwakatare’s Tabata-Bima property

The centre, however, was closed down some years back by Dr Lwakatare, who is also, the Head of Mikocheni B Assemblies of God Church and a former Member of Parliament.

This comes in the wake of reports that some 183 individuals in 17 regions countrywide owe the parastatal a total of 1.2bn/- arising from illegal connections and arrears, among others.

Technicians from the power utility arrived at the premises today and disconnected the line providing electricity to the compound which comprises several housing units.

“The owner of the property inherited the arrears when she acquired the property from National Insurance Corporation in the year 1978,” according to the Chairman of Tanesco’s Special Audit Team, Mr John Manyama.
