    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Thank you, also for admitting Waziri Duale to this House in an afternoon when we have been talking about experts. This is also to showcase that we also have experts from the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party and the Kenya Kwanza side of the House. This gentleman did an amazing job at the Ministry of Environment and Forestry. We were waiting to swim in the Nairobi River. As soon as he had set up the plan, he is now at the Ministry of Health and we hope he will clean up Afya House. Today, Hon. Duale has done a job of advocacy and sensitisation. We have also seen him on TV doing the same. As he speaks about SHA today, the story that is out there is about the teething problems. My concern is this: Does the ministry have tangible plans to conduct proper sensitisation and communication campaigns to allay the fears that Kenyans have? The questions which Hon. Kawanjiku asked are the same ones that Kenyans have. The information sits at the Ministry, but it does not trickle down to the people. As they invest in big plans at the Ministry, how will this message get down to Kenyans? Finally, there is a big monetary investment by Kenyans on making universal healthcare work. We are still very dependent on remedies, therapies and medicines from outside Kenya. We very well know from our traditional medicine and culture, we have therapies that are better than the medicine we import through the Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA).
