    "content": "In terms of security, if we do not have adequate electricity across the country and we have guns or tear gas… If there is no electricity for operation, things will not work. I am talking about motivation of the human resource employed by Kenya Power. It takes days to reach Kenya Power for connections. Why are we talking about increased costs while the jobs they are supposed to do are not well managed? So, the management of Kenya Power should up their game. If there is a problem with a transformer, does it mean they do not have field officers to establish before we report to them? Why are there gaps? So, the management should address the real issues. The Ministry should ensure that the cost of electricity comes down and the sources which can improve and sustain provision of energy are realised. Otherwise, at this rate, we will be telling Kenyans that we have failed as leaders and cannot sustain the economy because there is no money. So, education, security and the jua kali industry cannot move and nothing will happen. Water is life and so is energy. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
