"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to request the Minister for Energy to give a Ministerial Statement on the charges levied by the Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) Limited, for connecting customers with electricity. In the rural areas, the KPLC demands Kshs32,000 before it makes a single connection to a house, yet in urban areas it costs less than Kshs5,000. Could the Minister give an explanation for this disparity? I would also like to know what this project called \" Umeme Pamoja\" is all about. Who are the beneficiaries of this project? But, more important, I would like him to specify why the KPLC charges Kshs32,000 to connect people with electricity, while it charges Kshs5,000 in the urban areas for the same. Thank you."
