I must say that I am also adequately educated on what East Africa Integration is all about and the challenges that we are facing as a country. If you are perceived to be a big brother in a union like ours, the East African Community, it always comes with a lot of challenges. We are perceived to be very aggressive. Our aggression is perceived to be geared towards taking over the entire region, which is not a bad thing. But ... view
• 3 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: There are a number of challenges which are slowing down the integration process. Key among them is the poor state of infrastructure in terms of transport and communication. There has been a lot of effort for the member states to think regionally. The conception of the idea of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) was partly contributed to by the need to come up with improved infrastructure.

• 2 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I thank the Members of the Departmental Committee on Health. Of course, we expected this from them because the membership of the Committee includes very senior health experts.

• 2 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: As a country, universal healthcare is one of the key pillars that we have prioritised. For our people to access quality healthcare as envisioned under universal healthcare, there are a number of things which have to be right. We need quality drugs and various cadres of health professional: doctors, pharmacists, clinical officers and nurses to be properly regulated. We also need proper regulation of dispensing of drugs. view
