11/ Politics aside, Governor @susankihika position has been simple: protecting public assets may not always be popular, but leadership sometimes requires making decisions that serve future generations, not social media trends.
War Memorial Hospital: A Story of Governance, History and Public Assets.
THREAD
1/ Long before PPPs became common, Nakuru's War Memorial Hospital operated under a unique hybrid model, private management with government representation through the Nakuru War Memorial Trust.
10/ Her position has remained consistent: hospitals can be rebuilt and healthcare services restored, but once public land is lost, recovering it becomes almost impossible. So those accusing her of not focusing on healthcare need to know the history first.
4. The hospital was established in 1921/1922 as a memorial to soldiers who lost their lives during the First World War, hence the name War Memorial Hospital.
Its mission was service, not profit.
2. Contrary to popular belief, War Memorial was never purely a government hospital and neither was it an ordinary private hospital.
It was managed under the Nakuru War Memorial Trust, combining private management with government representation in its governance structure.
@susankihika Wasikusumbue, Your Excellency. Those pushing narratives will keep doing so even when the facts are clear. The truth about War Memorial Hospital is there for everyone willing to see it. Tuko nyuma yako.
I now believe we have a senator who's eccentric. How can you say money goes back to the national Government and absorption is still ongoing. She was schooled by Governor Susan Kihika, yani we made a mistake electing a clueless leader.
Governor Kihika kudos for safeguarding public land (War Memorial), we're behind you. If what i heard from Senator Keroche during the senate yesterday, then we've lost leaders. Senator, how can you protect the interests of individuals over Nakuru residents.
