Embu residents expressed their displeasure as President Ruto attempted to outline the successes of SHA and Affordable Housing
Residents of Embu expressed their displeasure with a number of government policies during President William Ruto’s speech during the consecration of Bishop Peter Kimani at the Embu Catholic Archdiocese on November 16.
The congregation expressed its displeasure when Ruto tried to outline the successes of the Affordable Housing Program as well as in the health sector following the transition from NHIF to SHA.
“My friend the fourth president uliniwachie ile kazi ya affordable housing. Mimi nimeskumana na hiyo program hata hapa Embu…” the president explained before his voice was drown in the murmurs, cheers and jeers that erupted as a section of residents registered their displeasure.
“Vile vile katika mambo ya matibabu. Jana tulizungumza mambo ya matibabu ya Universal Health Coverage (On health, we had a discussion on Universal Health Coverage yesterday),” the President stated with the crowd expressing their disapproval and drowning his voice.
It is only after the president committed to sorting out the mistakes and chaos that have characterised the transition that the crowd clapped in appreciation.
“I won’t let free healthcare service be a thing for the rich only, let it be the right of every Kenyan, and I will make sure no more challenges.
“We will make all the corrections because Universal Health Coverage is a must-do because it will make a difference and ensure no citizen is left behind,” the president said.” President Ruto added.
