"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry is definitely ensuring that we move fast. As soon as we make up with the connections---. As you know, we are currently operating almost at par in terms of power generation and consumption. I want to report to the House that Kenya is part of what we call the East Africa Power Pool Countries which have agreed to share the electricity generated within all the five countries of the East Africa Community, including Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt. I want to believe that once we ascertain the amount of electricity that we require, we will definitely connect every other area. We also have a special funding for areas that we need to consider like the northern part of Kenya and other areas where the allocation is not enough. So, we have some affirmative action and the hon. Members knows that very well. When they make requests for such areas to the Ministry and when the funds are available, we share such funds to ensure they are connected with electricity."
