• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when it comes to the Motion, I want to start by looking at life expectancy. I have two sources: one from the World Bank and another from the World Health Organisation. The average life expectancy for Kenya in 2015 was at 62.3 years, having improved from 51 years at the start of the 21st Century. This shows us that the improvement of the health policy will give the people of Kenya good health. A healthy nation is a working nation. view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: The Sessional Paper talks about the principles. One of the principles I would like to emphasise is the smooth operation between the national Government and county governments. We have had a problem where the national Government is reluctant to co-operate with the county governments. This Sessional Paper outlines the procedure and the framework in which the national Government is going to co-operate with county governments to ensure that Kenyans get good health. view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Another issue which I want to outline is the provision of the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) card. When you look at a country like the United States, it has very good outlined health social security standards. Therefore, if Kenya can aim higher in the health sector, then it will be a working nation because a healthy nation is a working nation. view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I take this opportunity to support the Motion. Thank you. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. My point of intervention is I want to correct my friend, the hon. Member for special interests. This is an hon. House and the Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga deserves some respect. Therefore, as you address the Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga, have some sense of respect. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Nevertheless, thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
