"content": "be humane. The donors are watching. They have called to request for interviews to ask what is going on. They support our country with so much money for health. Why is it that we have detained patients? Why is it that we have detained bodies? What is the rate of people dying in our hospitals? We need data. We are going to have census but census is one thing. It just shows us how to plan forward. We need daily data of where our people are dying and what they are dying from so as to be able to check whether there is negligence here and there. I know nurses are on strike. How many people are dying because the nurses are on strike? The families need access to good medical care, now they have to deal with the fact they have a body that they cannot bury. We need to have dignity in our country. Our leadership deserves that. I know Waheshimiwas are trying but we need to have a budget for that as well so that patients can be taken from the hospital especially a child. A woman walked with her dead baby. There is no humanity. When Nyerere defined us as a ‘man eat man’ society, he was right. We reach a point where we just do not care. Our jobs are mechanical. There is no humanity, emotion and empathy. It is almost like Kenya is becoming narcissistic. We should all support this Motion and there should be an effort to combine the Bill that will come up from Mohamed Ali and Anthony Aluoch because it seems they are looking at the same aspects of how we can make our citizens have access to medical care and to be treated with dignity in the event that they lose a loved one. Thank you."
