    "content": "In terms of Sen. Musila saying that the lines have criss-crossed his county but they are not connected, I agree and one of the initiatives that the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum and Kenya Power have done is to talk to the Members of Parliament who have Constituencies Development Funds (CDF), because the lines have crossed but the transformers are not adequate. Therefore, they have asked the Members of Parliament who have the CDF kitty to ensure they fund so that more transformers are supplied so that we can connect to more homes. As the schools are being connected, we also encourage homesteads around the schools to also connect to the power grid. Sen. Billow said that some of these counties are not in the national grid. What happens to them is that the power is generated through generators, most of them in the northern part of the country. I do not have an answer right now on what Kenya Power has done to make sure that there is continued power supply especially during this forthcoming El Nino rains, but if I get more details, I will give it to the House. Thank you."
