    "content": "NASA, as Hon. Kaluma is saying, is an outfit that is not recognized even in any statute. It was started by one person and I am sure its day of collapse is very soon. In the health sector, when we took over, there were only four referral hospitals. Today, we have 92 referral hospitals. It is a fact that 1.2 million mothers can now access parental birth and ante- natal care free of charge. All that boda boda riders, hustlers, matatu men and pastoralists need to do is take their pregnant wives to hospital to deliver. They will only be asked to take home the new born baby and the bill will be paid by Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta. This is the Kenya we have today! This is a new dawn! I am talking about 1.2 million mothers accessing free prenatal, free birthing and free antenatal services. Hon. Shakeel, unless the women in your constituency do not deliver and unless you represent a certain age group which has passed the delivery age, I am sure--- If you are very honest - and all of us are honest here - as we speak now, there are Kenyan women delivering in public hospitals courtesy of free maternity that has been allowed by this administration. Give the devil his dues. You might not like Uhuru Kenyatta, William Ruto or the Jubilee Administration because of your ethnic orientation or the region you come from, but he has offered free maternity. I said earlier that there are those who cannot hear and those who cannot see and yet, the almighty God has given them ears. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, on NHIF today, 2 million Kenyans can access NHIF. Today, 44,000 Kenyans can access service delivery in 41 Huduma Centres. In the past, when you lost your ID card and you wanted to apply for a passport or a birth certificate, the Government agencies dealing with those documents were situated in different places. Today, all those services have been brought under one roof called Huduma Centre. The 44, 000 Kenyans do not have to travel to Nairobi to access that particular service. All one needs to do is to go to the nearest Huduma Centre. The Government supports and ensures that the residents of this country access service delivery. On e-Citizen, this Government has invested in making sure that you can apply for a visa or a passport using the digitized platform of e-Citizen, which is so far accessed by 3.8 million Kenyans."
