Nyamira Governor John Nyagarama has said his government in conjunction with World Bank and the European Union will help connect electricity for 30 thousand Nyamira residents in an exercise that is to commence in one month's time.
Addressing mourners at a funeral of his former political adviser Dominic Matoke in Magombo ward in Nyamira County on Wednesday, Nyagarama said his county government will enroll youths who will be tasked to visit homes where the main power lines passes so as to take necessary details of the people.
"Starting next week, we will employ youths who will visit your homesteads to take your personal details that will necessitate the connectivity of electricity provided your homes are 30 metres away from the power lines," said Nyagarama.
Nyagarama further urged the residents to ensure they register to get KRA pins for the document will be necessary in the process.
"I urge county residents who dont have KRA pin numbers to ensure they get them because the pins will be necessary in processing the connectivity of electricity, but be assured the exercise will be free of charge," added Nyagarama.
