President Ruto’s government has defended the new health care programme, noting that the defunct NHIF was riddled with corruption that only benefited cartels and that the reforms will help deliver affordable and quality universal health care.
Even so, in his latest revelations, the former deputy president said he fell out with his boss President Ruto because he was against unpopular State policies such as high taxes and Adani-like deals.
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua now claims that the only motivation for the implementation of the new healthcare programme to replace the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) is the Sh104 billion information system.
In an interview with Inooro TV on Sunday, Mr Gachagua claimed the lucrative tender is the only interest in the rollout of the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) and Social Health Authority (SHA).
