    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I support the Petition as well. Medical personnel in this country suffer a lot. They are in every village and center in this country, where they help the communities. However, when it comes to remuneration and taking care of them, they are usually put in the back seat. As some of the Senators have already mentioned, UHC is there and there is a lot of money being wasted, like on this so-called MES. Billions of shillings are being wasted while members of the heath profession are suffering. I do not see how we will succeed if we do not have proper personnel. Doctors, nurses and clinical officers are running away from this country; they are going to look for greener pastures overseas. Mr. Speaker, Sir, when I was in medical school during those days, nobody wanted to go anywhere. With the few shillings we were getting, medical officers, clinical officers and nurses were okay and happy in the country, working for the people. But of late, I do not know where the rain started beating us because things are going haywire in this country. On this issue, we usually have problems between health and labour, and most likely, it should go to the Committee on Labor and Social Welfare, because they are the ones who deal with remuneration and suffering. Thank you."
