Kenyans have been urged to only get Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) from Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA)-licensed service providers for their own safety.
At the same time, the country has been rallied to seek electrical services from competent electricians who have been assessed and licensed to avoid electricity-related fires and deaths.
Engineer Joseph Oketch, the director in charge of electricity and renewable energy at EPRA who spoke in Garissa, said that while one of the government's objectives was ensuring that the country transitions to LPG, it was keen on ensuring that all the safety requirements are adhered to for anyone wishing to get the services.
He was speaking during a public participation forum on the energy electric power undertaking regulations draft of 2025 and the electricity supply and electrical installation work draft of 2025.
