Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri has urged the National government to revert health sector under its management since the devolved units have failed to address the challenges involving the sector.
Speaking at Bahati Trading Center on Monday, Ngunjiri said that the health sector is in dire state after it was devolved.
“County governments have failed to deliver better health care to residents,” said Ngunjiri.
Ngunjiri claimed that the failure by governors to support the proposed health plan by government is a clear indication that the governors are not ready to deliver better services to the common wananchi.
The National government has set aside Sh38 billion health plans that seek to introduce state-of-art health facilities in all counties to cope with cancer and kidney diseases.
Under the plan, each county will get intensive care units, cancer diagnosis equipments and dialysis machines.
The legislator said that the government's mega health plan to improve the sector in the country was in the interests of Kenyans and snub by the governors on the project was in bad faith.
“The governors should support the plan to improve health care, not rejecting it,” said Ngunjiri.
