Title: Ndii Coming Under Fire on Electricity Costs
Post by: sema on February 26, 2023, 04:53:17 AM

Ndii is arguing that Kenyans have 2 choices:  1) 24/7 electricity and continue paying the current high rates 2) pay less and get south african style load shedding.

What exactly is the problem with the high cost of electricity in kenya and why is Ndii so far away from what the rest of the population is seeing?

I thought the solar from Turkana would bring rates down, but I guess i was wrong. Unless brokers found a way to eat the savings and not pass it on.
