"content": "inputs that have made farming unprofitable. I wish that that is reinforced so that our farmers can benefit from the business of farming. Secondly, I wish to appreciate the incentives that sugarcane farmers were given. The fact that we can now produce our own sugar is a plus. Nevertheless, I have many questions regarding the President’s Speech. I wish that those issues could be put into context. First, the concept of SHA was very good, but as far as I am concerned, its implementation remains a scam. You realise that salaried people are carrying the burden of SHA. Kenya is not made up of salaried people alone. When they carry the burden of SHA without the big businessmen or people in the informal sector, who are not under SHA, you are turning them into slaves. That is discriminatory. I do not know why they were in a hurry to set up that programme. If that programme is for Kenya, everybody should be on board. The salaried people should not carry the burden of SHA alone. Secondly, I also heard that SHA is now Taifa Care. How many things are being introduced outside Parliament? It is respectful that we continue to consistently use the terms that are introduced in Parliament. Otherwise, we will just be a House of decorations and not a House that makes decisions for Kenya. I was very shocked to hear that new terminology while I knew very well that we have SHA and SHIF. It is very demotivating for people behind the curtains to come up with other funny names because it erodes the trust of Kenyans. We wonder when those names were crafted and what else is being crafted. What benefits are people getting from SHA? A patient on dialysis is entitled to Ksh6,000 per session. How much is a dialysis session? Let us unpack that new healthcare system and not pretend that we are newcomers in Kenya. What will Ksh6,000 cover for patient on dialysis? That is a big joke. That needs to be reviewed. The element of Adani in SHA must be done away with. If we have said that Adani is corrupt, then he is corrupt all through. We cannot have an element of Adani in SHA and yet, it is being covered up to seem like it does not exist. The element of Adani in SHA should be removed. That is in order. My second point is on..."
