    "content": "This Bill recognizes that we as human beings are all one race. Earlier on, I said as grow up, there is something called spatial awareness. I know the distinguished Senator who brought this Bill when she was three years and below she was inquisitive as any other child. When she was being carried on the back of her mother, she was only seeing the back. A country like USA and others in Europe, children are carried on the front, so that they can see everything. There is a big gap of understanding between them and us. When we talk about corruption, certain people can boldly say: “Oh it is not Ksh21 million, it is Ksh7 million.” Corruption is corruption. We will not preserve human dignity if we will continue belittling serious issues. We cannot say because it is not much, it is okay. It is not okay because somebody somewhere is missing water. We talk about food security in this country. However, all our actions have been reduced to what I can call food insecurity. This Bill promotes the issue of ensuring that every citizen in this country has access to proper health care. I want to commend the National Assembly because finally they passed a Bill that will ensure that if someone dies in a hospital, he will not be kept there. I hope this Bill will be brought here.
