• 4 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: We cannot attain 100 per cent universal healthcare coverage in this country when we have only three referral hospitals. We are joking. We are not serious. We also need to increase the NG-CDF allocation. We amended the NG-CDF Act and allowed some money to cater for the NHIF cards. We need to increase the allocation at the constituency level to cover the poor. Counties are not as efficient as the NG-CDF when it comes to dealing with matters at the grassroots level. We need to increase the allocation so that we cover more vulnerable people under the NIHF so that ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: We also need to amend some laws on issues regarding medical facilities. We cannot leave this noble venture to governors alone because they concentrate on feeder roads. You will find a clinic managed by a county government has no medicines. Let us classify hospitals. Let us return Level 5 Hospitals and above to the national Government. Let the county governments handle dispensaries and clinics. Let us also ensure that we have one centre to supply medicines to those hospitals. Let us not allow county governments to start importing drugs on their own. Let us guard lives. view
• 4 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Quality training is also a matter of concern. You find universities offering degrees in medicine yet they do not have a referral hospital nearby to help in practical teaching for students to qualify well to provide quality services. My colleague mentioned India, where each hospital is attached to a university or is a teaching and referral hospital of a university. Let us embrace such practice as policy in Kenya. Let us make Kenya Medical Training Colleges (KMTCs) operate under a certain level of a hospital. Let us not just establish KMTCs in every constituency, where the main hospital is a ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, with those many remarks, I support and thank the Government for establishing Lugari Medical Training College at Mautuma Hospital. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. You know I have been a guest of the State for some days but I wanted to comment on this issue of Cabinet Secretaries appearing before Committees. Some Cabinet Secretaries do not take matters of the Committees seriously. I would propose that we change the Standing Orders and bring them to the Dispatch Box in the Committee of the whole House so that they can answer Questions and we interrogate with other supplementary questions and they answer us properly. This is because at the committee session, they answer one or two Questions and then they say ... view
• 13 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: There is an issue concerning a road in Lugari. This is the Turbo-Kendu Road. It was advertised in 2016 and was awarded in 2017. Up to now, nothing has happened. I asked that Question in the last Session and it was partly answered. I asked a similar Question in this Session and it has not been answered at the moment. These Cabinet Secretaries need to take their jobs seriously and answer us. It is in the Standing Orders. Alternatively, we can amend the Constitution and appoint Members of Parliament as Cabinet Secretaries so that they can answer Questions on this ... view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, is the Majority Chief Whip in order to mislead this House that the Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development should resign and yet he is in the Jubilee leadership? He is the person who should confirm to us that the Cabinet Secretary has resigned. What are the Members in the Jubilee Party doing? view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: He is misleading the House that the Cabinet Secretary should resign. He should tell us that the Cabinet Secretary has resigned because he is the Chief Whip in Jubilee Government. This is a disaster to our county. view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: He should not play around with us here that if he were the CS, he would have resigned. Tell us that the CS has resigned. view
