"content": "know, our public institutions, especially universities, should be in the forefront in ensuring that medical research is done. Institutions like the Kenya Medical Research Institute (KeMRI) should be strengthened and given more funding, to ensure that as they do other research, they do more research on cancer. It is a pity in this country that when somebody is diagnosed with cancer, most of us seek a ticket to go to India. The Indian Government has invested a lot in terms of research on cancer. Why can we not bring India to Kenya by making sure that we not only sponsor and fund research, but embrace technology and invest more in our doctors. Currently, we know the tribulations that they go through. We must educate, fund and support our medical fraternity and health sector, to ensure that we come up with a proper and effective solution against cancer. As we stand together in this, I will find a day when I will be inviting my colleagues to join me in paying a visit to the family of the late Hon. Munyua Waititu because he was a colleague to many even in the National Assembly. We convey our togetherness with that family in the coming days. I condole with them."
