"content": "Social Health Authority (SHA). This is a matter of national concern. It is an issue we have canvassed. We have problems with SHA, but, unfortunately, everybody is denying. On Sunday, the President himself accepted that we have problems with SHA. That means that SHA has not been processing payments. The Committee should invite everybody that has a say in this particular matter because Kenyans are dying in hospitals. Kenyans are not able to access healthcare because of problems of payment by SHA. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me also to comment very fast on the Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Murango about incorporation of art and sports in the CBC. This is something important because by the end of this year, we will be transitioning leaners to Grade 10, where they will pick their pathways and specialise. We need to know exactly the arrangements by the Ministry, so that as we place learners in their pathways, we will have guided them."

"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I rise to support the statement by Sen. Cherarkey, I keep on asking myself for how long medics will be on the streets in this country for their issues to be addressed. As we are seated here, those medics on the streets would have been in hospitals attending to Kenyans. I know there are patients lining up waiting for their services. The Statement must be interrogated and necessary actions be taken. Secondly, I support the Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Murango on the challenges facing teachers’ medical cover in the country. Every other day, we are debating on issues of teachers. If it is not their medical cover, it is about discrimination in their hardship allowance or some hardships that teachers go through in this country. Not only teachers, but also even the police officers have had challenges with their medical cover. These are key public servants that provide noble services to the people of Kenya. Let the issues of teachers including their medical cover be sorted. I have often come in handy to help certain teachers - I know all of us have done the same - when teachers are in hospital because they have difficulties accessing their medical covers. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let us treat teachers in this country with the dignity they deserve because it is from the knowledge that they give that a number of us are even in the House of Parliament."

"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. I support Sen. Onyonka’s Statement on Mrs. Bichanga who is being evicted from her matrimonial home. This is not an isolated case in Kisii County. We have so many of similar cases, for example, in Bomachoge Chache. I fault the Ministry on Lands, Housing and Urban Development on this because it is failing on sensitization for succession issues. So many other families in Kisii are not willing to undertake succession for lack of information. I also support the statement by Sen. (Dr.) Murango on medical cover for teachers. Last weekend, I attended a funeral ceremony in Omosocho in Bomachoge Chache Constituency. Teachers in that funeral ceremony were crying and asking why people were dying at this time.

It is unfortunate that issue exists in this era. It is unfortunate that our girls who go out there to work to earn their living are harassed and intimidated. We need to speak up. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are many trainings that have been done for such workers yet it has not helped. These issues of agents who insist on facilitating or transporting our girls out there in different countries, especially Middle East has really become an eyesore. This needs to be called to a stop. I also support Sen. Cherarkey’s statement on the shortage of health facilities at Kapsabet County Referral Hospital. When we went around during our tour with the Committee on Health, we realized hospitals do not have drugs, oxygen plant and even the gas cylinders were empty."

Mutinda on the same issue of sexual harassment on staff of the institution that has been mentioned in the statement. This issue has occurred in different forms within a period of one week or so. I remember we had a similar problem in Magadi last week. There was a very serious case where members of Kajiado area of Magadi Soda have been terrorized by Mr. Lorgali. We really need to pray that God will intervene to our young women. Why are some men terrorizing women in this country? It is very important that people understand the need to follow the right procedure. I also want to support the Sen. (Dr.) Murango's Statement on the teachers' medical cover. It is not just teachers, but almost the entire public service. We have a very big problem now in Kenya where police are not covered. Even where they are covered, there is no remittance of premiums to the insurance companies by Government itself. When we had the Cabinet Secretary for Health here last week. She could not explain herself for us to understand why Government is not paying National Social Health Insurance Funds (SHIF)."
