"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is high time that, as Kenyans and leaders of this country, we addressed corruption. It is not just about corruption. It is about our lives. Cancer is emanating from the proceeds of corruption. We do not even know where the Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are coming from. We do not know where the eggs that are brought to this country are coming from. Even the Kenya Bureau of Standards is not functioning. We should not be asking ourselves where cancer is coming from. We know where it is coming from. On top of the proposal by Hon. Wanga is that we train oncologists, we should encourage more home-based care givers. I remember some time back that TB was controlled through home care givers. Now TB is something of the past and it is manageable. I hope that this Government could train more home care givers. This will cut down on costs because we should concentrate on prevention. Most cancer patients are going to hospitals when they are on their final stages. If we can start from the early stages and we have cheaper care givers, it is going to help those poor Kenyans and patients. That is because it is going to be cheaper than going to those expensive hospitals."
