24 Apr 2025 in National Assembly:
Just a moment, Hon. Gikaria. You will speak. Many of the IPPs charge on capacity. You will make that clear because I am sure you have better information than I. This means you pay them for capacity but not the power they supply. In my opinion, this is one of the things that makes power extremely expensive. As Members of Parliament, that matter came up when we had the retreat in Naivasha. Why is it that you can buy power from Ethiopia for only five cents or Ksh5? How much was it? Was it 0.5 cents or five cents?

This translates to Ksh5 per unit. On the other hand, we pay Ksh80 per unit to IPPs. As a House, this is an area we should delve into. Hon. Gikaria, proceed with what you wanted to raise. Under your watch, we believe you will do a very good job. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

Excellent. Chairperson, you have to understand the concept of lifting the veil in law. When we were in Naivasha, I said that you could not locate the camels that were stolen by the owner. These contracts were lopsided because very powerful people in the system had interests. Unless you go back, lift the veil and get to the bottom of the rot, Kenyans will always get a raw deal. Sorry, proceed. It is not a tradition for the Chair to mention some of these things, but I am also a Member of Parliament representing a constituency. Proceed.

How long do you need to come up with a very comprehensive answer? I presume this will be after you hold a session with the Members of Parliament from the affected areas, the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum and all the other stakeholders.
