Oketch Gicheru","speaker_title":"","speaker":null,"content":"Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I had one minute. It is unfair for the Senator for Kisii to attack my Statement in anticipation. I had not said what I wanted to say. If he has personal beef with his governor, that is his personally. However, I was saying that compared to what I see in Migori County, there are a number of counties close to each other like Kilifi and Taita Taveta, which depend on Mombasa for healthcare services. It is also true that Migori County heavily depends on a number of hospitals in Kisii County. I have had my parents and family members go to Tabaka in Kisii for medication and for referral services in Kisii because they have better facilities than Migori County. That is a fact. It is not a lie. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is out of order for the Senator for Kisii to say that I am sanitizing Kisii when I am giving my experience. Even the people of Migori will tell him that for better referral services, we get them in Kisii and Bomet counties, a place called Tenwek Hospital. That is where most of our people go and get medication because Migori is struggling in these services. I still say that Kisii has got better facilities than us Migori County and my governor must work harder to reach the level of Kisii and Nairobi."}
