    "content": "The other area that I am happy about in this Budget is on the issue of transformers. The Committee has indicated that there is need for rationalisation and equity in distribution of transformers in this country because they have not been distributed in a fair way. That is their observation and that is the case on the ground. So, when the Committee says that the transformers also need to be procured in a very open and transparent manner so that we can get the best quality transformers, I support that because even in my constituency of Gichugu, I have a problem of transformers getting spoilt. That is an issue that was already picked up by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations and I believe there are cases already in court which involve the issue of transformers. So, these are areas that Kenya Power, Rural Electrification Authority (REA) or any other Government body that is tasked with the procurement of facilities like these should always take the best for wananchi .
