Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 22390, member: 2262"] Raymond Omollo, a big boss at the Interior Ministry, wants Kenyans to ignore the people spreading wrong information about a new health program called Taifa Care. He says it's meant to ensure everyone can get the care they need, no matter how much cash they have. Omollo told people they could still sign up for Taifa Care. He hopes all Kenyans will join so the whole country can have better healthcare. President Ruto really wants this to happen. A new group, the Social Health Authority, will work hard to ensure that every Kenyan gets good-quality care. They also want to improve hospitals and ensure that patients always have the right medications. Omollo says this is a good thing for Kenya. He wants people to ignore the haters who are talking bad about Taifa Care. The program is supposed to help everyone out. The way it works is that people who earn more money pay a bit more into the system, which helps cover the costs for folks who don't make as much. Omollo thinks this will stop people from having to beg for money every time someone gets sick and needs to pay hospital bills. Many Kenyans are broke because of those bills. Some even had to sell their stuff to pay them. But if everyone gets on Taifa Care, the government can ensure they're taken care of. Omollo discussed all this at a big community meetup in Siaya, which Attorney General Dorcas Owuor put together with the Ndege Community Resource Centre. They had all kinds of stuff going on to help people out, like getting birth certificates and other important papers. Samuel Atandi, an MP from Alego Usonga, said it was really nice of the AG to bring the government right to the people like that. He thinks it shows everyone wants to pitch in and make life better for Kenyans, even in little villages and towns. [/QUOTE]
