Ledama Olekina saying that there is an intention to connect most of the Northern Frontier counties,f and it is a privilege that you are sitting as the Speaker today. Counties like Mandera, Wajir and Garissa should be connected to the national grid of Kenya Power. That is significant. I thank Sen. Ledama Olekina who is our Minority Whip. We support this because we want access to power to be easier. The only part I do not support is when he becomes specific on the person to do it, but I hope these issues can be resolved. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the County Governments Election Laws (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.2 of 2024) is very direct. As my colleagues have said, under Article 54(2), the state shall ensure the progressive implementation of the principle The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
