Kenya will spend Sh2.2 billion on acquiring 720,000 cooking gas cylinders and several refill plant machinery through a State-owned fuels dealer as it rolls out a programme to entrench use of the commodity among low income households.
The State Department of Petroleum Principal Secretary Engineer Andrew Kamau said the move would help the government avail affordable cooking gas to low and middle income Kenyans who mainly rely on kerosene for cooking.
