They have been toying with the idea for a while.

I notice that Wazuans discussed it back in 2011

If it happens, be prepared to be blowing yourselves every week.

Ministry of Energy Principle Secretary Andrew Kamau has announced the government’s plan to introduce piped cooking gas in residential areas.

In an interview with Ktn news, PS Kamau said that the gas would come directly to the kitchen through a pipe system, replacing the gas cylinders.

“We are about to change the legal notice to allow for piped gas to all those low-cost housing. So you do not have to move around with those cylinders. It will come to your kitchen through a prepaid meter if you want or through a metered system that can be billed to the provider,” said Mr Kamau.

He further affirmed the government’s capacity to do so citing other upmarket estates areas that have installed such piped gas.The project would be realized through the government’s affordable housing project.

In 2018, the government halted similar plans over safety concerns, lack of appropriate infrastructure and lack of gas reserves

You need to have faith & trust in your government. This will be a big infrastructure development by Jubilee.

@ AA, If they cannot pipe water that flows on gravity, how can they manage gas that need to be pressurized. Before one can walk, one has to learn to crawl. Jubilee has not even started crawling but now want to do a sprint.
