"content": "Mandera has more problems and they do not need the extra problem of somebody making sure that they cannot access the NHIF card. As you are aware, Mandera is one of the counties that is being ravaged by drought and famine. If it reaches this level where the county government does not do its job then somebody must be called out. I hope the Committee on Health led by Sen. Mandago will summon the Cabinet Secretary (CS) of Health, the Chief Executive Officer for NHIF and the Governor for Mandera. It is good the Senator for Mandera, who is also the Party Leader for United Democratic Movement (UDM), is here. The Senator must be there to look at this issue so that we have closure on this matter. Neighbours like Sen. Dullo from Isiolo and all of us can be invited as a Committee of the Whole because NHIF is a national issue. I want to thank Sen. Mariam Omar for bringing this issue to the Floor. Even as we look at this, can NHIF give us a short-term solution because sickness does not knock on the door? It does not alert you that you will be sick today, so you should be ready. Can the Committee on Health, led by Sen. Mandago, with reference to Standing Order No. 1, give short-term solutions by Tuesday next week, on what can be done so that the card holders can continue receiving medical care as we look into the issue? I thank you."
