    "content": "The Committee on Health should summon the County Government of Vihiga to make sure they interrogate and find out what happened to this young girl. Secondly, the situation at our county levels is pathetic. Over the weekend, I was going round the hospitals in the county and I came across an appalling situation at a place called Ol Denyuro. This is where mothers who are about to deliver and are experiencing labour pains are put on a motorbike and taken to the hospital. This is a county hospital that is receiving support for the Universal Health Care (UHC) programme. This is really terrible, and I hope the Committee on Health Committee will do something about it. The hospitals are so dirty! The standards are not conformed to and nobody cares what is happening in most of those hospitals. I hope at some stage, we should be able to look for that particular Motion and see how we can refer back the function of standards to the national Government. Unless we do that, then we cannot save the lives of our people. The reason for devolution is to take services closer to the people but unfortunately, Kenyans are not getting that service at that level."
