"content": "Nakumbuka tulipokuwa wachanga, baba na mama walikuwa wafanyikazi wa Kitengo cha Afya. Walikuwa wakifanya kazi kwa Serikali. Ingawaje tulikuwa wachanga, tulikuwa tunaona dhiki na shida katika hali ya maisha. Ukweli wa mambo tukiwa tunaunga mkono Statement ya Mheshimiwa ni kwamba, mara nyingi magavana wa Kenya wakishughulikia mipango ya afya, hawaangalii shida na changamoto za wafanyikazi katika kitengo cha afya. Mara nyingi, wanashughulikia mijengo. Lakini ikifika mahali pa kushughulikia wale wafanyikazi wa serikali za kaunti kwa upande wa afya, wanawachilia sehemu hiyo. Kwa hivyo, ninaunga mkono hiyo Statement kwa sababu saa hii, wafanyikazi wa afya wa Meru wamegoma kwa sababu ya shida na kutojaliwa na mamlaka ya Gavana wa kaunti hiyo. Kwa hivyo, nimesimama hapa kuunga mkono Statement hiyo. Tuangalie na tuwafanyie haki wafanyikazi wa serikali. Katika familia yetu tulipokuwa wachanga, kama baba na mama hawangetoka kwa Serikali na kwenda kufanya private practice, najua tungekuwa tumeishi maisha mengine tofauti kama vile waliobaki kufanya na Serikali. Bi. Spika wa Muda, maombi yangu ni kwamba upande wa afya pia upewe pesa za kutosha. Na tusiseme haiwezekani, inawezekana. Wengine wetu ambao tumefanya katika kitengo cha haki miaka iliyopita, tulikuwa tunajua kwamba, mawakili ambao walikuwa wanafanya upande wa Serikali, hawakuwa wanalipwa vizuri. Mara nyingi, tulipokuwa tunaanza kazi, sote tulikuwa tunakimbilia upande wa kufanya kazi kibinafsi ama privatepractice kwa sababu huko ndiko tulikuwa tunajua kuna hela. Lakini, miaka hii iliyokuja baadaye, tumeona Serikali inalipa mawakili wao vizuri. Prosecutor na Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) wako sawa. Hakuna tofauti kubwa kati ya wale ambo wanafanya kazi kwa serikali na wale ambao wanafanya kazi za kibinafsi ama private practice. Ukweli wa mambo ni kwamba, kama Serikali imeweza kufanya vile kwa upande wa mawakili na sheria, hakuna sababu nzuri ya kutosha ya kutofanya hivyo kwa wafanyikazi wa kitengo cha afya. Kwa hivyo hakuna sababu ya sisi kusema kwamba magavana wasifanye hivyo. Bi Spika wa Muda, ninasema hivi kwa sababu ya shida ambayo iko Tana River Kaunti. Maombi yangu ni kwamba, wakati Kamati ya Afya ya Seneti itakaa kuangalia suala hili, waangalie pia sehemu ya Tana River Kaunti. Wafanyikazi wetu wana mishahara duni. Wafanyikazi katika kaunti zingine wanapata mishahara mikubwa kushinda wale wa Tana River Kaunti. Hii inaleta mgogoro kwa sababu utakuta watu wengine wanatoroka ile kaunti ili wakafanye kazi katika kaunti zingine ilihali, wote wamefanya training sawa. Kwa hivyo, suala hili liangaliwe na Kamati ya Afya. Waulize kwa nini Council of Governors (CoG) hawawezi ku- standardise . Ikiwa wewe unafanya kazi ya nurse kwa kaunti hii, uwe pia unalipwa mshahara sawa na wale wanafanya kwa kaunti zingine. Kwa nini tusiwe na structure ambayo itasimamia Kenya mzima, kaunti 47, ili wafanyikazi wawe wanapata mishahara ya sawa? Jambo lingine pia ni promotion ya hawa wafanyikazi wa Serikali. Kuna kaunti ambazo watu wanacheleshwa promotion na zingine, wanafanyiwa haraka na haieleweki ni kwa sababu gani. Kwa hivyo, naomba wakati ambao Statement hii inaangaliwa, CoG pia, waitwe ili wajieleze kwa nini hawawezi kuwa na structure ambayo itakuwa inafanya mambo ya promotion katika gatuzi 47."

"content": "Kule kwetu Tana River, kuna wale ambao waliajiriwa kazi katika kitengo cha afya kwa contract . Katika kaunti zingine, contract hizo zimeanzishwa upya ama zimekuwa extended na wamekuwa absorbed . Lakini katika kaunti yetu, wale ambao wamefanya kazi na contract hawajakuwa absorbed . Swali ni; kwa nini kaunti zingine wanafanya hivyo ilhali zingine wafanyikazi hawapewi zile contract zinazotakikana. Sisi tunaomba kuwe na standardisation ama usawazishaji wa mambo ya haki za wafanyi kazi wa afya katika Kenya mzima na gatuzi zote za Kenya. Bi. Spika wa Muda, katika Statement hiyo na kutokana na mambo yanayofanyika katika kaunti yangu, kwa sababu ya kukosa kuwapatia wale wafanyikazi extendedcontract, kuna kitu kinaitwa understaffing ama ukosaji wa wafanyi kazi wa kutosha katika health department . Watu wengi wakienda hospitali, wanakuta pengine yule ambaye ni mkubwa wa hospitali ndiye clinical officer na tena yeye ndiye anasimamia records . Kuna shida katika hizi dispensaries kwa sababu wale ambo walikuwa wapewe hizi extended four-yearcontracts, hawakupewa, ilhali kaunti zingine wamekuwa absorbed . Kwa hivyo, ninaomba wakati Kamati ya Health itaangalia, pia waangalie sehemu zingine kama Tana River Kaunti. Bi. Spika wa Muda; poor working conditions . Mtu anaenda kufanya kazi, anataka kipimo cha damu kifanyike na akienda kule, hakuna reagents ama dawa zinazotakikana ili hiyo damu ikipimwa, ilete majibu ambayo daktari atafanyia kazi. Mtu anatumwa lab ilhali hakuna reagents . Kwa pharmacy, hakuna zile dawa ambazo zingefaa zimsaidie yule mgonjwa baada ya kuonwa na daktari. Tunataka Kamati ya Afya ya Senate waangalie pia sehemu zingine, sio Meru Kaunti pekee. Waangalie kuna shida gani katika kaunti zingine kama vile Tana River County ili wakati wanatoa uamuzi, watoe uamuzi wa kutosha. Kweli, wafanyikazi wengine wa Serikali kule Tana River Kaunti wamepata nyumba lakini, ni nyumba za zamani. Zilijengwa wakati wa ukoloni na ukweli ni kwamba, nyingi zinaporomoka. Hakuna namna ama budgets ambazo zinawekwa kusaidia kutengeneza nyumba hizi ili wafanyikazi wa pale wawe wanafanya kazi vizuri. Mfanyikazi wa hospitali yuko pale kazini lakini hata vyoo haviko safi wala katika hali ya kutumika. Mtu akiwa anafanya pale hospitali, inabidi arudi nyumbani akiwa na mwito wa haja."

Kathuri Murungi, Senator for Meru. Madam Temporary Speaker, this Statement regarding what is happening right now in the counties is very timely. Doctors, nurses and even cleaners in hospitals are not well taken care of. One, they are underpaid. Two, they are vulnerable because they meet patients with all manner of diseases and they are to treat them without fearing for their lives. These are people to be taken care of, considered and made happy. They need to"

"content": "work in a conducive environment that will even encourage them to continue doing the good work that they do. Madam Temporary Speaker, in Machakos, I have seen cleaners cleaning blood, urine and all manner of dirt in hospitals. There is a contractor who has a contract with the county government to employ cleaners. The cleaners go for up to seven months without pay yet he is earning his pay every month. When the Standing Committee of Health considers this Statement, they should also look into the welfare of the cleaners who clean in county hospitals at all levels. They should know how they are employed and what they can do if they do not earn their salary. I understand that most of them do not even have any insurance that can be used to treat them when they fall sick. Even the majority of these doctors and nurses complain about hospital insurance. Madam Temporary Speaker, in most of the hospitals, patients cannot even get as little as blood tests from the hospitals. The Computed Tomography (CT) scan machines and X-rays are not working, so, patients are sent somewhere else for check-ups. You find that these doctors are unable to give services to the patients because these machines are not working. The Committee should also check on the environment where doctors and nurses live because it is key. I support this Statement by the Senator for Meru County. On the Statement by Sen. Asige, we have so many talented youths in this country. However, with the little monies that the counties get, they are unable to be supplied with all the equipment and techniques needed. They should be given all the materials needed and build the stadiums to the standards that are needed for them to work. I am shocked that the lady from Makueni was asked for a bribe to join sports. She is now winning gold medals for other people and not us here in Kenya. The Football Federation and sports should be checked. I thank God that hon. Murkomen has been taken there. I hope he will be keen this time round to do his work. I hope he does his work without partiality and considers all the counties across this nation with justice. Madam Temporary Speaker, if I were the President of this country, I would have given that docket to one of the Gen Zs who have been demonstrating on the streets to be right inside the Government. Also, I would give the docket of Gender to one of the ladies from the Gen Zs, so that they can be right inside the Government. They demonstrated then the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) just took over the game and brought in their people. The Gen Z were not awarded anything. We will continue to stand with you Gen Z, continue with the fight."
