    "content": "As a country, we need to educate our people so that they can know that there are many alternative sources of energy that we can utilise. We can generate solar power in areas where it is not cloudy in the country. We have quite a number of them. Waves can also be tapped and can still generate electricity. In certain countries, this technology had been applied properly. I know there are several commissions and parastatals which deal with energy. The question of nuclear energy is very sensitive. We have seen what has happened to countries where nuclear energy has not been utilised. The effects are adverse. In certain places, nuclear accidents have resulted in deaths. It is even a bigger challenge for a third world country to use that technology. What happens in case of a nuclear leak? As much as this Bill has not yet been passed into law, we need to improve on it, so that we can have the necessary precautions. If Kenya is ever going to use nuclear energy, we need to know how best to make it safe for our people. We are blessed with many great rivers. We also have a lot of sunlight and other natural resources, which we tap to produce enough electric power."
