Kenya will buy half a million more six kilogramme (kg) gas cylinders with cooking accessories that will be sold to poor homes at a discounted price of Sh2,000, down from about Sh5,000 after Parliament increased allocations for the subsidy plan to Sh4.5 billion.
The Budget committee has increased allocation by Sh1.5 billion for the year starting July from the Sh3 billion that Treasury had set aside for purchase of one million cylinders.
