According to an eyewitness, Susan Wachuka, the young man removed all of his clothing before climbing the transmitter line.
“We thought it was usual of him to UnCloth,” she said.
The man, who was only identified by the locals as Emmanuel, is said to have been a carpenter who was having mental problems, adding that he was always quiet.
Kenya power staff arrived at the scene but were forced to wait for crime police officers for three hours before removing the body.
