"content": "Investigations (DCI), should do everything possible to make sure that all the thieves are arrested, charged by EACC and the monies are recovered. Since, they live in this country, they are known and some of them are in Government. It is important for this issue of SHA to be looked into so that we bring this matter to conclusion. We should also come up with a way forward to make sure that a common Kenyan is served by this system. It should not look like it was better when NHIF was there, but make sure that nobody is detained in hospital after giving birth or getting sick, especially when they come from poor families and are not able to afford the medical services. Additionally, ensure that they are free from such mistreatment and being mishandled. Meanwhile, while we sort this out, the Government should come up with a strategy of releasing these people or getting them paid for as we have raised more than enough money. The Ministry of Health is devolved but the money is stuck at the national Government. Most important, that money should also be devolved. Now that we, as individuals, are funded, then any deficits should be taken care of by the Ministry of Health. Otherwise, I am grateful and thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to make these comments."
