    "content": "The health sector in the entire country is at the verge of collapsing. Therefore, there is need to move very fast and save the situation. When you look at a county like Turkana, Lodwar County Hospital is almost collapsing. When you rush a patient there, they may hardly get sufficient attention. In the recent past, two people lost lives because of negligence. The hospital could not get oxygen for them. Therefore, there is need for the Committee on Health from this National Assembly to pay a courtesy visit to ascertain the state of Lodwar County Hospital. This is because the men manning the counties have turned themselves into contractors. They are the ones who do virtually all the contracts that emanate from the Ministry of Health. This compromises their abilities to manage these services effectively. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, my last point is on public debt. The Kenyan public debt has reached intolerable levels. The rise of the public debt from Kshs362 billion in the Financial Year 2015/2016 to Kshs433 billion in the current financial year is unwarranted.
