So, I have new fiction out in @Hopkins_Review. It is titled, How To Raise Your Parents. Please read, share, let me know what you think about this story!

KNH collects KSh 40–60 million daily.
Yet patients miss meals. Dialysis is skipped. Cancer tests are delayed. Suppliers walk away.
That’s not inefficiency. That’s a cash-flow chokehold.
A policy decision centralised hospital revenue while restricting access to operational funds.
Hospitals are not ministries.
They cannot wait. People die in real time.
When a hospital cannot touch its own money, it cannot buy reagents, food, oxygen, or drugs.
You don’t need corruption to collapse care.
You just need delayed remittance.
This is why diagnostics fail first.
This is why dialysis suffers.
This is why oncology patients wait.
Healthcare collapses quietly - not all at once.
Universal Health Coverage cannot be a registration exercise.
Liquidity is care.
Cash flow is survival.
Audits matter. Accountability matters.
But starving hospitals is not reform.
You can digitise without paralysing.
You can control without killing.
KNH is the last line of care.
When counties fail, cases escalate to KNH.
When KNH fails, there is nowhere left to go.
This is not a hospital problem; It is a system design failure with human casualties.
If the national referral hospital collapses, the message is terrifyingly simple:
If you get sick and are poor, the system will watch you die.

You don’t get to abduct a citizen, torture him across counties, forge OB entries, lie to Parliament, and then disappear behind a resignation letter.
That is not accountability. That is evasion.
If Lagat walks, it will confirm that in Kenya, state officers can kill and go home to dinner.
We must demand more. We must demand justice.
U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods drop from 145% to 30%. The U.S. and China have agreed on a 90-day tariff pause during trade talks in Geneva on May 12, 2025. This marks a cooling-off period after sharp escalations in April. https://t.co/dfxIdwnVss
Some of you are walking love letters, and you don't even realise it. You light up rooms, shift atmospheres, and inspire just by being you. It's such a precious gift.
The persecution of Grace Mulei for demanding accountability from the Government is anathema to our constitution and rule of law. Her arrest is not only substantively flawed, but was done in a manner inconsistent with the inherent dignity of every person, especially vulnerable members of society.
The alleged offence of causing a public disturbance is only punishable by a fine or imprisonment for 6 months. Article 49(2) of the Constitution prohibits persons arrested on such claims from being remanded in custody. The actions of the @NPSOfficial_KE and @DCI_Kenya against Grace Mulei offend the constitution, law, and the Police's own standing orders. The @LawSocietyofKe will provide legal support to secure the release of Grace.
