“This electrification has been completed at a cost $94,313 and will provide a new and reliable supply of electricity to seventeen families in the Wainikoro settlement, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In addition I think this is a prepaid system so you don’t have to worry about manually paying your bills as your payments will be done through respective m-paisa accounts.”

This project is part of Government Rural electrification project for which forty- two point six million has been allocated to electrify rural homes throughout the country.
