Want power? Give us electricity
Even the most strident critic of President Kenyatta’s administration will concede that the reforms and the disruption and shake-up of the electricity sector that he has been implementing even as he prepares to leave office in a few months has made a great deal of progress.
It started with the appointment of the task force on negotiation of power purchase agreements led by investment banker and corporate executive John Ngumi. Then followed the appointment of a reform-committed board at Kenya Power and the removal from office of a long serving insider and CEO.
Lastly, there was a shake-up at the Ministry of Energy whose highlight was the exit from Nyayo House of long-serving Cabinet Secretary Charles Keter and his principal secretary, Mr Joseph Njoroge. BY DAILY NATION
