    "content": "Thank you very much Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Pursuant to Standing Order 48 (1), I rise to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Energy regarding electricity connectivity to Isiolo County, and specifically, on the stalled Kina- Mbarambate-Mbiliko Power Line Connectivity Project. In the Statement, linking to the fact that Isiolo is one of the pilot counties for most of our strategic initiatives in our country, including the Universal Health Care (UHC) and others, it is important that the Committee establishes the following: - (1) To explain why the Kina-Mbarambate-Mbiliko Power Line Connectivity Project has stalled for more than five years despite the fact that the Rural Electrification Authority (REA) bought the items required for the project five years ago. (2) The Committee should also help outline the status of the completion of the project and establish the measure, if any, that the Ministry of Energy has put in place to revive the project and state when the project will be completed. (3) To advise on the possibility of extending the connection on the national electricity grid to Merti Sub County and Kulamawe as per the initial plans at the beginning of this project."
