Siaya County residents have been encouraged to support the proposed Ksh 500 billion nuclear power project, with Senator Dr Oburu Oginga emphasizing its benefits to the region and the country. The 2,000-megawatt project, located in Lenya Village, is expected to protect residents' interests, and government land valuers will be accompanied by private valuers to ensure fair compensation.
NuPEA CEO Justus Wabuyabo assured residents that the agency would work directly with landowners to prevent predatory buyers from exploiting them. The residents have made several demands, including the tarmacking of the Bondo-Liunda Road, employment opportunities for 20 trained teachers, and organized scientific visits to nuclear power projects abroad.
