    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I wish to take this opportunity to congratulate the newest kid on the block in Parliament for that very awesome support. I want to support the amendments to the NHIF Bill. We have lost lives. The number of people dying is worrying. Burials have become the order of day. Nowadays when you travel back to the counties, every single day people bury the dead. If there was a time NHIF needed to come to Kenyans, it is now. Most of these deaths are caused by lack of good treatment or lack of the right medication. We have seen ourselves being added to several WhatsApp groups each and every day. A majority of the groups are for medical bills. At times, you are added to a WhatsApp group and you start making contributions. Before you are done, the group turns into a farewell group, meaning we have lost the person we were contributing money for. The person dies because he could not access treatment. This cover is very important. NHIF should also do a lot of civic education and awareness, telling people how important this cover is. Everybody should be aware of this cover. A majority of people are not aware how important this cover can be. I have gone through the Bill and the situation is going to be better than it was before. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity."
