Poor homes will now acquire six kilogramme (kg) gas cylinders with cooking accessories at a discounted price of Sh2,000, down from about Sh5,000 after the government provided Sh2 billion for the subsidy plan aimed at cutting reliance on kerosene and charcoal.

The cylinders, dubbed Gas Yetu, will be distributed to the poor across the country by State-owned National Oil.
