"content": "Today, I want to challenge Members. Six months later, hundreds of Kenyans have died, thousands of Kenyans have had to undergo very difficult financial times. Today, as a House, as we leave here to go home⦠Hon. Sankok has said we have insurance. Yes, we do. Many Kenyans do not have. What solution is Hon. Sankok and every other Member in this House providing through this House? This is a house that makes laws for Kenyans. The NHIF can tell us they cannot do something. We are the ones who decide what can or cannot be done. We, as a House, are the ones who decide whether that law is legal or that law is not legal, according to the Constitution. We must think very seriously about how much money we are going to put into NHIF, as a House. We must think very seriously about how we are going to take care of our healthcare professionals, as a House. We can come here and pontificate, we can come here and make political statements, and we can come here and make ourselves popular on the ground, however, we were chosen as leaders to provide solutions for Kenyans. We let Kenyans down six months ago when we refused to set up the ad hoc committee. What are we going to do now? The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
