    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute in support of Vote 30 – Ministry of Energy. This is one of the Ministries in which we are seeing a lot of projects being done on the ground. I must thank them for going ahead and taking the constituencies as the principal focus of development. I must also thank the Minister and his able team particularly the Rural Electrification Authority (REA) and KPLC Limited. They are always available for consultation with all the stakeholders on where the projects are supposed to be undertaken on the ground. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, because my colleagues have talked about where electricity needs to be connected, I just want to underscore the need for the economic stimulus projects. We have identified schools, health centres and Jua Kali projects. It would be very prudent if the Ministry would ensure that the projects are connected with electricity. Those projects were undertaken with the objective of spurring economic development. I think energy, particularly electricity will help those projects achieve those objectives. Other means of generating electricity have also been put forward. I want to single out solar energy and wind energy. I beg to support."
