Health CS Aden Duale is living in the past

Duale shoots down questions from NMG reporter on SHA payment to private hospitals

Corruption • A thorough forensic audit should be done to establish the theft of land, other public property, and funds by some political leaders and their cronies in the past 50 years, says Enrique Fabios. “In effect, this is the theft of the wealth of future generations. The inquiry is needed to recover all the stolen wealth. AI can be used to analyse cash transactions!” His contact is [email protected].

Construction • The National Construction Authority (NCA) and county governments are mandated to ensure the safety of buildings, says Moses Kariri. “However, children fall through safety grills on storey buildings and die. People fall on staircases and break their backs. The metals can be hazardous, but the NCA doesn’t see this problem. The government should act.” His contact is [email protected].

Garbage • Stage 26 in Ruai on Nairobi’s outskirts is chocking with garbage, says Lucas Kimanthi. And the open area next to Total Petrol Station and the planned Maathai Supermarket has been turned into a dumpsite for Kamulu and Ruai neighbourhoods. “The place is now an eyesore and health hazard. Can Governor Johnson Sakaja do something about it?” His email address is [email protected].

Politics • ODM secretary-general Edwin Sifuna may be under siege for his opposition to the broad-based government pact with President William Ruto’s UDA, but he has some diehard admirers, including Samuel Onyango. Says he: “Sifuna is one of the standout performers in the Senate’s oversight role. This guy always represents his voters with a lot of passion!” His contact is [email protected].

Scapegoating • Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale is living in the past, as the media report facts as they are to inform and educate the public, says David M. Kigo. “Attacking the Nation for presenting factual news is unjustified. The ministry should put its house in order, especially on the Social Health Authority (SHA), which has problems. Just don`t look for a scapegoat.” His contact is [email protected].

Have a truthful day, won’t you!
