• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in moving this amendment, I want to start by sincerely thanking this House and, more specifically, the Speaker, for directing that the Committee on Health looks at this issue, so that it can come up with very elaborate recommendations. view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, page 3 of the Report states that the House was not satisfied with the Minister’s response on the Floor of the House. I want to put the record straight. The Ministerial Statement was requested by me. The Minister issued the Statement and the Chair directed immediately that the issue be handled by the Committee. So, it is not true that the House was not satisfied. I believe that the House was not going to be satisfied. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to state that one thing that has come out in this Report is that ... view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my good friend knows that, that is the direction we are praying for; where Kenya is united and speaks with one voice for the success of this country. I was very categorical and specific that in that institution, which is taking care of the lives of Kenyans, we need unity and direction by the Board members. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have looked at the Report and it indicates that the Chairlady or the Board, itself, advised the incumbent Chief Executive Officer (CEO) not to apply. But the same Board allowed the same CEO to apply ... view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to believe that, that should be the case. I want to indicate again here that this issue of acting will never give one room to act professionally and firmly. We need to make sure that a CEO is appointed, whether it is Dr. Kibosia or any other person. We want to remove the word “acting.” We hope the President will act on that. view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this same letter that was written by the same Chairlady, who claimed that there were issues with the CEO, writes the following in paragraph two:- view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: “I have always known of Prof. Mengich’s extremely successful work, both as a founding Dean, Faculty of Health Sciences in Moi University and now, as the Chief Executive Officer, Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital. It is largely because of his personal efforts and exceptional ability to source for, engage and maintain international partnerships that Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital has grown in leaps and bounds ever since its gazettement.” view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is from the Chairlady, herself. Some of the fears that she has indicated here have come to be true. Again, on page two, she claims:- “It is instructive to note that Indiana University and other collaborating North American Universities were largely sourced by Prof. Mengich through personal reliable contacts such as Prof. Mamlin and Prof. James Lemons. Such individuals value honesty, transparency, efficiency and effectiveness, all of which, Prof. Mengich has continuously exhibited.” view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, those are the words of the chairlady. Down there, the letter reads:- “I kindly request you to give Prof. Mengich a new term. This is because the donors might easily withhold their funds until they fully understand and engage any other new person.” view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that fear is what we have come to learn. It is actually happening. The donors are now observing from a distance. view
