    "content": "operationalise the coffee cherry advance revolving fund that was to be made available to coffee farmers. As we speak, farmers are anticipating and highly expectant of the money that they are supposed to be given from the sale of their coffee. We are delighted that our farmers are going to receive the money. What we request from the Government is for the Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Co-operatives and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development to make sure this money is available to farmers as fast as possible to make sure they do not continue suffering from delays in the disbursement. I was delighted to listen to the President talk about UHC. This issue is very dear to Kenyans because a healthy nation is a wealthy nation. I remember we passed a Bill here a few weeks ago—the Facilities Improvement Financing Bill. It is supposed to ensure that our Level 4 hospitals utilise the funds that they collect. What used to happen was that a Level 4 hospital like that in Runyenjes could not utilise the money once it received it. They were channelling the funds to county coffers then wait for the same funds to procure fuel for ambulances or even buy essentials they could have otherwise bought from the finances they received. We believe the approach the President has taken on the UHC will work for the benefit of Kenyans so that we take care of our health. We require great leadership even in challenging times. We thank the President for providing strong leadership as he steers this Republic out of the debts that we owe the Western countries and the Chinese. We believe better days are ahead and that it is just a matter of time. With those few remarks, I thank you."
