    "content": "areas at a very low cost. This project in Ghana has seen 22 health projects implemented. I will just sample a few because I can see a red flag in terms of my time. Service delivery, community-based health planning and services has been there because of how they are reaching out to the people. The objectives of the project are to use appropriate technology to generate more accurate reports that can be used to make decisions by the community health officers. We have communities down there in the villages which are not able to access the cities and services within our towns and urban centres. They have reached out to community health officers and district health managers to use technology to generate monthly reports, follow up on mothers on antenatal clinics and the children and register nurses within the community. I can go and on. Ghana has developed a web-based interface communication network where they have servers hosted in each hospital. They now have proper communication between the district and referral hospital. In fact, they have a system where they can reach out to over 100 doctors at any given moment for diagnosis and offer expert advice wherever you are. Now people can get treatment wherever they are. We have a lot do to. As I speak, we can do it in Kenya because our network is 90 per cent complete. In fact, our mobile subscribers are at 91 per cent compared to Africa as a whole which is at 80 per cent. So, this country can do it. If we are at 90 per cent in terms of people who have subscribed to mobile services, why should we not use the services for people to get diagnosed through internet connectivity? Madam Temporary Speaker, our internet connectivity by mobile phones is at 83 per cent. In fact, we have overtaken Nigeria which was ahead of us. An example is the Jumia Online Shopping which is at 70 per cent. They are able to get paid for all online shopping. Over 50 per cent of online mobile shoppers make payments through mobile transactions. Kenyans are very active on social media. In WhatsApp, we are at 74 per cent,"
