You give bursary to a handful of Mixed Day School students only yet you go making noise all over the media at people educating Day and Boarding students, tertiary and university students!
Ndindi Nyoro should go for benchmarking in Homa Bay Town Constituency.
There is a project along river kuja in kisii county just bellow ITUMBE tea factory, Is this project part of KTDA power and if yes when is the anticipated completion?
KTDA Power Company Limited, a subsidiary of KTDA, has reported a 32% surge in electricity production from its operational hydropower projects, directly benefitting smallholder tea farmers. Currently Imenti, Lower Nyamindi, Gura, North Mathioya, Chania and Nyambunde hydro-projects are fully operational. These six operational power plants generated a total of 3.28 MKWhrs in the month of February 2025, and 4.33 MKWhrs in March 2025, representing a 32% increase due to the increased rainfall within the month. The increase is attributed to the ongoing heavy rains, which have significantly boosted river flow and output. These hydro-power plants supply power to 17 tea factories.
Lower electricity costs allow factories to process tea more efficiently, thereby reducing operational costs, thus increasing the price paid to farmers for their produce.
Construction continues at several other hydropower projects, including South Mara, Iraru, Rupingazi, Kipsonoi and Chemosit. The company is also in the feasibility study and tendering phase for additional projects that are Kathita, Kiringa, Ragati, Gatamaiyu, Nyamasege, Taunet and Kapolet hydro projects. These future developments aim to further solidify the region's energy independence and enhance the economic stability of tea farming communities.
"The benefits of reliable, renewable, clean, affordable, and sustainable energy are evident, and works are ongoing for other small hydro projects. We are determined to ensure they are completed and fully operational." said Peter Wachira, the GM KTDA Power Company.
The KTDA Power Company's initiative highlights the potential of small hydropower projects to drive economic development and improve livelihoods in rural Kenya, leveraging natural resources for sustainable growth.

@GatimuKL@jnjauu Very few corporates are paying all these benefits. Most do only the bare minimum.
In fact yesterday I was with an ex-matatu driver and owner turned Uber owner. He said his own matatu was unprofitable, he was better off employed as a driver.
@veronica_Maina1 The fact that you've started with Gachagua means that politics come first other important issues are Secondary. Your constituents should know their affairs mean less and politics of tribe mean More to you as their representative, What a Joke.
@CBQat Good morning, earlier today I was making a withdrawal at one of your ATMs but money was not dispensed, yet it's deducted from the account. Kindly assist
@KarungoThangwa Only 2 of the 13 were honest in their voting ....the rest voted No in fear of electorate and those in Wiper is because their party leader wants to associate himself with the Kikuyu votes. I am also surprised that the former DP could not make friendship with other leaders.
