KENYANS DESERVE A HEALTH SYSTEM THAT ACTUALLY WORKS, NOT ANOTHER EXPENSIVE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THAT COSTS THEM THEIR TAXES.
The transition from the SHA Provider Portal to HMIS is being presented by CS Aden Duale and the Ministry of Health as a move to improve efficiency, transparency and accountability. But let’s talk facts and follow the money:
1. 2023 – FOUNDATIONS & SYSTEM DESIGN:
An estimated KSh352M went into early modelling and design of the Integrated Healthcare Information Technology System, alongside regulatory and technical preparation for the transition from legacy NHIF systems.
2. 2024 – MAJOR INFRASTRUCTURE:
An initial development allocation of about KSh400M, while the Safaricom-led consortium was awarded the broader IHTS contract valued at KSh104.8B over 10 years.
3. 2025 – TAIFA CARE & SaaS:
Software services were valued at about KSh2.3B over 10 years, roughly KSh230M annually.
4. 2026 – MORE SPENDING:
We are still spending on operations, hardware expansion and the ongoing transition to HMIS, even as facilities migrate from the SHA Provider Portal.
Now consider what these figures could mean on the ground: KSh352M ≈ 12–18 primary-care facilities; KSh400M ≈ 13–20 facilities; KSh2.3B ≈ 77–115 facilities; and KSh104.8B ≈ 3,493–5,240 facilities.
If billions are being committed to digital health infrastructure, Kenyans have every right to ask: where is the tangible improvement in our hospitals and healthcare services? All these costs are ultimately borne by the common mwananchi,the Kenyan taxpayer.

So after Ruto, another president comes and hides more 'public' contacts from the people. When will the cycle stop? Basically, @HonAdenDuale is saying that Ruto won't disclose Lamu refinery contact because Uhuru hid Express way contract. Hii cycle hadi lini
It's just staggering reading.
- Inflating revenues and costs by more than £900m
- 'Sham contracts' and 'sham’ agreements'
- Committed 'multiple breaches of its duties of co-operation'
- Filed misstated accounts and concealed the true state of its finances
It just goes on and on and on..........

William Ruto’s relationship with evangelical and Pentecostal Christianity predates his presidency. During the Jubilee campaign, he cultivated relationships with Christian leaders and networks, particularly within evangelical and Pentecostal circles, while presenting himself to a much broader Christian constituency. His political biography has also frequently been narrated through the language of faith and providence: the son of a peasant farmer who rose through Kenya’s political establishment through hard work, political resilience, and God’s favour. What changed with the presidency?

In the book, Animal Farm, Napoleon & Squealor rewrite history so much such that yesterday's sin becomes today's virtue that older animals who remember the truth begin to doubt their own memories.
