Last-Mile Electricity Key to Reducing Rural-Urban Migration – Owalo
The government emphasizes last-mile electricity connectivity as a crucial solution to curb rural-to-urban migration. Eliud Owalo, Deputy Chief of Staff for Performance and Delivery Management, highlighted this during the performance evaluation of the Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC).
REREC’s strategy includes a shilling-for-shilling matching approach with counties and constituencies to accelerate electrification. The initiative aligns with the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda, aiming to create jobs and improve livelihoods at the grassroots level. The government remains committed to achieving universal electricity access by 2030.
