    "content": "He should fear no one. The Bible says you should not fear who kills the body, but cannot kill the soul. Be afraid of the one who can kill the body and the soul. I challenge Sen. Karungo Thang’wa on the way he is standing strong on matters of murima, to also stand strong on the issues of Adani. We want to know what really happened to our airports, including the Kerenga Airstrip in Kericho. Has it been sold? That is the question many Kenyans are asking and what the issue is on the private partnerships in this country under the Act, Sections 4, 2 and 40. I am still challenging Sen. Karungo Thang’wa, the way he spoke with authority on Sunday in Kirinyaga to also speak on these matters with the same vigour and as an authority. He should also behave like a miracle Senator because that is who he is. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on point five on moratorium, we should not lift it on the issue of PPAs through IPPs. That is the point. Before we lift the moratorium that was imposed in 2021 by the report and the task force that investigated the issue of PPAs under IPPs, we must agree that there are ground rules that need to be set. For example, KP buys from KenGen at Kshs5.30 per kilowatt. My brother, Sen. Eddy, they buy from IPPs at Kshs195. As I said, KenGen sells to them Kshs5.30. These are mikora and corrupt individuals who are being protected. They buy at Kshs105 per kilowatt. That is more than Kshs190 from KenGen and this is a rip off. Sen. Sifuna, we need to know who these companies belong to and the contracts we will be getting into, going into the future.
