The Level 3, 4 and 5 hospitals should also be equipped and personnel like doctors and nurses employed to decongest a referral hospital like KNH. For example, in my constituency, people are referred to Machakos Level 5 Hospital. When they reach there, they are referred to KNH. If all the constituencies refer people to KNH, then there will be no space and doctors to treat them. Levels 3 and 4 hospitals in the constituencies should ... view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: If county governments can take the issue of health seriously, the national Government can take care of referral hospitals. We have strikes in our hospitals every day. I have seen as I am seated here that some nurses and doctors have said that they will call a strike because they have not been paid for some time.

When you are running an expensive factory and power comes and goes, you have to run generators, which eat into your profits. We need this Bill so that we are set. In future, when we will be ready to put up such plants, the Bill will be there to protect investors and employees who will be working there. Therefore, I support the Bill. view
• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: You have heard that once you start a nuclear plant, it takes about 18 months before you even stop it for maintenance or anything else, even to change a consumption item. Therefore, it is a very reliable source of power. Kenya needs to go that direction. view
