    "content": "It is sad that we lost the life of a mother and her child. That is a generation that was lost in a facility that should have been equipped considering that the health services are devolved. If the governor of that particular county knows about that, then he should have resigned a long time ago. The governor should not be in office when we are losing lives that should not have been lost. The circumstances that led to the death of Ms. Purity and her new-born should be investigated thoroughly. Justice should be given to the late Purity’s family. We need answers to this Statement as fast as possible, so that lives are not lost in such a manner. It is unfortunate that people are still losing lives. I know that Sen. (Dr.) Ali’s Committee will work on this Statement because we need to protect lives. Our mothers are dying. This is just one of the cases that has been brought here. How many cases of this nature are out there? Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have been a victim of such circumstances. I lost a relative who had been taken to Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) but the child survived. That is not a bad hospital. These are just a few cases that we know but how many are not reported? We are losing lives and generations. Investigations should be done to find out what exactly happened in the hospital, so that we do not continue losing lives through carelessness of our doctors who take the lives of our mothers for granted. Those mothers expect to get assistance from the facilities. I am a mother and therefore I know. When you go to a facility, you should be assisted. You do not go there to seek a death certificate. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support."
