    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the other point is that we have been having floods all over the country during the rainy season, although this year it was not much. We should spend a lot of money in damming some of those rivers upstream. If you go to some of the developed countries, they have very many small hydro-power stations all over on small rivers that do not even cost much. That is why they do not get shortage of electricity. The problem we have in this country is that we have put all our resources in one area to the extent that when there is no rain in that particular area, then there is shortage of electricity. If we had small hydro-electric stations on small rivers all over the country to supply electricity, we would not be having these shortages throughout the country at the same time. Today, if there is no rain in Mt. Kenya and Aberdares that affects almost 90 per cent of this country. That is something that we must look into and try to regulate so that we can have electricity all over."
