    "content": " Hon. Speaker, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. First of all, and more particularly, I must thank His Excellency the President for appointing them according to Article 152(2) of the Constitution and Section 3(a) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act. Ours is only to approve. We have vetted them and now ours is to approve. Hon. Mutahi Kagwe is a very brilliant person. He has been a Minister and so he has earned experience in governance. Therefore, I have no doubt in my mind that he proved in your presence that he is going to move with speed more particularly on the NHIF matter. He promised to move with speed and put all the energy required to have all the professionals required in place. Again, since he is a top manager and he has legislative skills that he acquired in this Parliament, he is a great man. I have known Madam Betty Maina for a while. She is a good performer. When it comes to industrialisation, trade and enterprise development, she is perfect. She will deliver. If the President had been working like this before, Kenya would have been very far. So, I urge the President to move with speed and remove all those who are corrupt. At the same time, I want His Excellency the President to move with speed and reward those who are great performers in this country. I tell all Members of Parliament that loyalty pays. If loyalty and humility pay, these two are very loyal to the President. I want them to perform to a logical conclusion to make sure the NHIF gets back to its own standards. I request the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee to allocate a lot of money to the Kenyatta National Hospital but more particularly to the MTRH because it serves 22 counties. I want expansion, modern equipment and digital infrastructure to be put in place. We The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
