The Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) has protested the proposed increment of electricity tariffs terming it as an erosion of gains made in positioning the country’s business competitiveness.
In a statement, the association noted that the proposal, scheduled to be implemented starting April 1, will see the manufacturers’ cost of electricity increase by between Sh3.5 and Sh5 per unit, translating to a rise of up to 38 percent.
