    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Motion by my good friend, hon. Ochieng. The shortage of nurses in our hospitals and dispensaries cannot be overemphasized. In all our respective constituencies, you can attest to this; there is a problem which is affecting all of us here. Arising from this, most of our constituents have resorted to miti ni dawa. The disadvantages of miti ni dawa are that there is no prescription, no scientific proof; you are just given a gallon of miti ni dawa to take in the belief that it will cure 40 or 90 diseases. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, hon. Ochieng should have put a sentence in this Motion that, at least, we should have mobile clinics in each constituency, so that in the absence of the clinical officers, as it is now, the mobile clinics assist constituents instead of moving from one part of the constituency to the other in search of health services. Also, this Motion should have been brought much earlier before the Budget Estimates were presented to this House; this would have done a lot of good to us, as a House and as Kenyans."
