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. At the centre of this debacle looms the ill-fated Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF), a purported beacon of hope hastily ushered into law by the Ruto administration.

"There is nothing strange with the planes and their operations. American soldiers operate 24 hours a day and are here legally," she said in a telephone conversation.

The official said she was not aware of any terror suspect who had been renditioned out of the country using the planes and termed the claims "speculations". Ms Dubois confirmed that the embassy uses the Prescott Support Group planes in their operations. "The US embassy has a contract with Prescott to fly their personnel and other goods to various destinations, but we do not operate at night."

Dubois declined to comment on whether CIA agents accompany American soldiers or embassy personnel whenever they land in the country. "No comment on the CIA agents in that context. Please," she said.

The embassy in Nairobi obtained a licence on behalf of Prescott to operate non-scheduled flights from Jomo Kenyatta International and Wilson airports from June. The Prescott Group, which according to the American media, has links with the CIA, applied for renewal of their licence in May and was allowed to make non-scheduled air service for passengers and freight in and out of Kenya.

Documents show that the company was allowed to fly in and out, for two years, in a Gazette notice on June 20.
