"For 8 years, the son of Kenya has not known peace and has been the subject of scorn and humiliation."


Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has lauded President William Ruto for appointing Former CS Michael Kamau to the NHIF Board.

In a statement reacting to the appointment, the DP said the President restored the lost dignity of the Ex-CS saying his unceremonious exit from the government had caused him sleepless nights.

"Let me take this opportunity to thank my Boss, H.E. President William Samoei Ruto, for restoring the dignity of Eng. Michael Kamau.  A distinguished Public Servant who put in years of committed service to our great Nation of Kenya, he was persecuted and taken through hell by the very Government he had served," Gachagua wrote on Facebook.

"For 8 years, the son of Kenya has not known peace and has been the subject of scorn and humiliation."

Gachagua added that the appointment of Eng. Kamau to chair the board of the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) brings experience and efficiency to an institution.

He said NHIF is critical in implementing the Kenya Kwanza Plan of realizing Universal Health Coverage for all Kenyans. 

"What a new year gift to the people of Kenya.  My Boss and brother President William Ruto, You are the Best!"
