    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have received the demographic statistics of Emuhaya as a district and I know that the nearest district hospital from Emuhaya is the Vihiga District Hospital, which is 15 kilometers away. It is rather far away as a referral centre from Emuhaya. But, Mr. Speaker, Sir, the land required for building a district hospital is not there. At the moment, the health centre occupies three acres, which is not enough to build a district hospital. Therefore, one of the things that I would request from the hon. Member is that, through the local authorities and with the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF), to ensure that, first and foremost, there is enough space to build a district hospital. We shall then definitely ensure that, in considering hospitals for the new districts, given that Emuhaya is rather far from Vihiga, that we shall definitely prioritise that request. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
