NAIROBI, Kenya Oct 10 – President William Ruto has taken a swipe at the state of healthcare in Trans Nzoia, joking that patients who go to a hospital locals call Shakahola do not return, as he promised to address delays in completing health facilities in the county.
Locals in Trans Nzoia County have nicknamed the Wamalwa Kijana Teaching and Referral Hospital as “Shakahola Hospital” due to a severe healthcare crisis.
“Ati watu wanaenda huko one-way?” Ruto asked, drawing attention to complaints about the hospital’s condition during his visit to Endebess, Trans Nzoia County.
