Nairobi nightclub becomes church

Clubs were not left behind in the nationwide blackout fiasco.

The merrymakers, who had enjoyed bangers and drinks earlier, started praising God after noting the darkness occasioned by the unpredicted power hitch.

In a video shared online, the revellers sang in unison as they attributed everything to the almighty; the setting would have been turned into a church should they had a preacher.

They appeared to enjoy every bit of it as they heartily clapped to accompany the praises they sang to God.

"The Lord is my shepherd in the land of the living, the Lord is good forever more. Jesus power, super power, Satan's power powerless power," they sang in unison.
