    "content": "We declined the request which required us to give Kshs1.5 billion to Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA) by the National Treasury. We rejected it and stuck with the original proposal which was approved by this House during the Second Supplementary Budget. We did not see good justification that we needed to give Kshs1.5 billion to KEMSA while we know that there was a huge raid by Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) there today. If we process Kshs1.5 billion to KEMSA, they will definitely not spend it in the purported purchase of reagents. Such reagents can still be purchased by KNH and MTRH directly, and procuring agencies which oversee the county referral hospitals, including Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital and Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital."
