Cabinet Secretary of Energy and Petroleum Opiyo Wandayi officially flagged off the construction materials for the KPLC Ugambe Beach/Uhasi Village electrification project under the Last Mile Connectivity Program (LMCP) at Usigu Sub County, East Yimbo Ward.

The event underscores a deliberate government effort to bridge gaps in energy infrastructure, particularly in rural areas where households have long operated without consistent electricity supply.
