    "content": " Hon. Speaker, the President should take his intelligence team to all the counties starting with Garissa where there is not a single bed in the ICU. All the money this House allocated and the National Treasury sent to the counties has gone into people’s pockets. The doctors in Garissa have been on strike the whole of this week. Three or four babies have died. We cannot say it again that this corruption… When I saw Hon. (Dr.) Nyikal crying, I got shocked. He cried because there are many Kenyans who died at their hour of need. Parliament allocated resources, but some people pocketed the money. A crime of this nature cannot wait! It is genocide! Governors must be held responsible. The Controller of Budget must be held responsible. Committees of this House, especially the Departmental Committee on Health, should walk away from the comfort of the boardrooms here. They need to go and visit the rural health centres in order to save taxpayers their money. I want to conclude by saying that US$2 billion that was given by the Government has gone to waste and Kenyans, including health workers, have died because of corruption."
