Ailing Healthcare: The Ruto Government's Betrayal of Kenyan Health

Explore the dire state of healthcare in Kenya under William Ruto's government, marred by the failure of the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) and conflicts of interest with Ruto's close associates. Discover how Kenyan hospitals are withdrawing services for NHIF cardholders, leaving citizens vulnerable and underserved... In the heart of Kenya's healthcare crisis lies a tangled web of betrayal and broken promises, orchestrated by the very government sworn to protect its citizens' well-being. As hospitals across the nation withdraw services for NHIF cardholders, the stark reality of William Ruto's failed governance comes sharply into focus.

Mr Jirongo was met with jeers from the crowd of less than 1000 when he tried to explain Kaddu’s plan to field parliamentary and civic aspirants in the December polls.

The former Lugari MP was met with boos as some people shouted: “Your are a traitor! You are a government project.”

Others shouted ODM slogans in support of presidential contender Raila Odinga as Mr Jirongo told the local community to refrain from supporting ODM blindly. He said they should only do so if one of their own was a member of the ODM pentagon.

Earlier, Mr Jirongo’s campaign organisers had to shift the venue from Posta grounds when it became apparent that wananchi were not keen to attend. ODM parliamentary and civic candidates in the area boycotted the meeting on grounds that they had not been invited.

It has been established that the Kaddu chairman refused to heed advice from key people and politicians from Bungoma that he calls off the hurriedly convened meeting.
