    "content": "When we compare ourselves with our neighbours, Kenya’s electricity tariff remains very expensive. We pay Ksh23 per unit in Kenya. Ugandans pay Ksh20 per unit for electricity. Tanzanians pay Ksh12 per unit for electricity. Ethiopians are doing much better because they pay Ksh6 per unit for electricity. Egyptians pay Ksh3.75 per unit for electricity. This tells us that our country, Kenya, charges seven times the cost of electricity as compared to Egypt. Hon. Temporary Speaker, this remains a very heavy outcry from our consumers, businesses and even individuals in this country on the high cost of electricity. There have been four taskforces created in the last four years to try and solve this issue. Unfortunately, it is still not concluded. It is my hope and prayer that this Motion is the one that will help us resolve this issue for the rest of our time as Kenyans."
