Senate Joint Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources Chaired by Nyandarua Senator John Methu in conjunction with Committee on Roads, Transport and Housing chaired by Kiambu Senator Karungo Thang’wa, visited Nyandarua and Nyeri Counties.

"Over the last two months, the Senate Standing Committee on Energy has been looking into why the cost of electricity continues to be high in this country." Said the Chairperson of Energy Committee, Sen. Wahome Wamatinga.

The Chairperson stated that the inquiry has not only opened the committee's eyes to many things, it has also demystified a lot of myths that were held before. 

The Senators were speaking during Electricity Sector Stakeholder Conference held on 30th June, 2023 in TradeMark Hotel at the Village Market, Kiambu County.
