    "content": "sources of power because hydro-energy is becoming very expensive. We need to relook at the budgeting of all these State corporations and start redirecting their budget towards renewable energy because the Kenya Power, KenGen and the KETRACO can do it. I was very happy to note that they are on top gear on nuclear energy, but they are looking at the long-term. For now, we need to address the issue in the shor-term because Kenyans are suffering. As we speak of high costs of living, we are also speaking of high costs of energy. The country has reached a point where we have to be sober. We have to start deliberating on the key issues affecting the citizens of this country. It is very important that we impress upon the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum to relook at the policy on energy. As I said, this is a very important Motion and we all support it. However, we ask that the policy on energy be relooked at afresh so that we can fully address this matter. We should not address it in piecemeal and only the reduction of bills, but also the cost of generating power in this country, so that we can start directing our resources to the cheapest and most viable sources of electricity. I thank you."
