Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while answering my question the Minister said one of the reasons for power interruptions is unreliable power supply. I believe that this unreliable power is affecting many Kenyans in this country. He has done very well in transforming the energy sector. There are some new initiatives such as geothermal power generation and wind energy which he has introduced. When will this country benefit from these initiatives?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I believe that this Assistant Minister has been doing very well in the energy sector. As much as he says that oil has not been discovered, I want to tell him that his other Minister the other day was very happy saying that oil has been discovered in this country, unless they are not serving in the same Government.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in answering part “b” of the Question, the Assistant Minister has said that in 2008 the bridge was done and at that time it cost Kshs1 million, which was not sufficient. From 2008 to date, it is close to five years. The Assistant Minister has an emergency funds Kitty which he allocates to some roads in the country. Could he consider funding this bridge this financial year using the emergency funds kitty? He should also consider other roads in the constituency which are in deplorable state.
