Members of Parliament want the management of Kenya Power investigated over the high cost of electricity even as they demanded curbs on expensive power purchased from Independent Power Producers (IPPs)

The lawmakers were considering a motion on the high cost of power sponsored by Laikipia Woman Representative Jane Kagiri, which seeks to stop the Ministry of Energy and Kenya Power from getting into any agreements with IPPs until the House makes a decision on the current high cost of electricity.
