    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I would like to respond to the two points of order by Sen. Murkomen whom I respect and Sen. Wamatangi. You should see the difference. The difference is that there is no bias in terms of admission to university for students in any part of the country. As far as the teaching and research is concerned, this is perfectly in order. However, once a university hospital becomes a teaching and referral hospital, besides teaching students, it serves people in the catchment area for medical ailments at a very sophisticated level. This is not hypothesis but real. You do not know these things. If Kenyatta University is serving the people in this catchment area; this is the same catchment area as the Kenyatta University Teaching, Research and Referral Hospital is serving, what is the problem with the money from China going to develop a former provincial hospital which has a quench to be a teaching and referral hospital? Do you not see anything wrong with this? A population of Nairobi of four million people will now be served by the Kenyatta University Teaching, Research and Referral Hospital, when another population of 5.5 million in western Kenya has nothing to fall back to. Does this not strike you; the House of equity? These are the questions we are asking. I do not want to say that they did not deserve to get that money. They do but we want services to spread around the country. This, for God’s sake, is a loan. Taxpayers will pay for 40 years and all Kenyans will pay. Why should this favour one section of the country?"
