In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) State the course of ongoing power outages in Mandera town as a result of load-shedding lasting more than 12 hours, considering that the majority of the county's residents are observing Ramadhan and rely on consistent electricity supply for food storage, health care services such as vaccine storage. (2) State actions being taken by the Kenya Power to alleviate the load shedding and restore dependable electricity supply to Mandera town. (3) Provide strategies being implemented by Kenya Power for improving communication with customers and addressing complaints, especially on load shedding. (4) Outline initiatives by Kenya Power to enhance the power supply in Mandera and Wajir town, including the establishment of infrastructure to support solar power utilization.
