    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to ask the following Questions directed to the Cabinet Secretary for Energy and Petroleum: (a) What is the Ministry doing to restore power in Wajir Town which has been without power from 24th September to date? (b) What is the Ministry doing to solve the recurring power outage in Wajir Town? (c) Is the Ministry compensating the Wajir business community for the losses incurred as a result of the power outages? (d) What plans has the Ministry put in place to connect the whole of Wajir County to the National Grid like in other parts of the country? Hon. Speaker, you can imagine that the headquarters of a county like Wajir has been without power from 24th September to date. It has been in total darkness. We did everything possible. The engineers were there but nothing has happened. Therefore, the only option we have is to use the Floor of this House to appeal to the Cabinet Secretary to urgently intervene with regard to this situation so that the people of Wajir can benefit from this very important service, just like His Excellency the President directed two days ago. Currently, the town is suffering. Nobody is giving plausible explanations on what has happened, why the generators are not working and when power will be restored. I hope the Cabinet Secretary will provide answers to those questions at the earliest opportunity."
