    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like the Minister to clarify one thing: He has talked about the Government giving subsidies for electricity consumers. My understanding is that, because KenGen had come to an agreement with the Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) to buy electricity at a certain amount and in order to sustain the viability of the next offer on KenGen shares, we are sustaining that agreement by not allowing KenGen to sell at a lesser price. That is what they are offering to do so that they can continue to pay the KPLC the same amount, which is higher than the one they want to sell the shares at, and we are saying that we are subsidising the consumers. But the real person we are subsidising are the shareholders of KenGen. It is not the consumers!"
