OTO,
How is Ayim's program beneficial to Kenya? Are there comparisons? As you may know, Cameroon is very rich in minerals and Oil, where in the past, before their Leaders became greedy, those Natural resources were used to build Cameroon to a very high class society. In came Paolo Batholomew Biya'a bi Mvondo and things started deteriorating. It has now reached a point where there are galleys on their roads instead of potholes. I talked to Valentine Mabumba Mfede just two days ago and he cries for the old Cameroon, where sytems worked. Right now, both the Port City of Duala as well as the City of Yaunde are in complete mess to a point it is hard to believe if there is oil wells in Cameroon.
This has made Cameroonians migrate en mass to the Western World in seek of better life. Meanwhile the Government continues the Looting policies that were initiated Biya.

Subject: [wanabidii] Listen to Prof Martin Ayim
Prof. Martin Ayim Ph.D., MPH, MCHES is an Endowed Professor of Health Education, Grambling State University, Louisiana, USA and we are happy that he is doing something to help bring change to Africa through the Comprehensive School Health Education. With this said,I watched one Francis Atwoli on TV yesterday and I was shocked. Mr. Atwoli is the Secretary General of the Central Organization of Trade Unions in Kenya- COTU, and a Board Member at the National Hospital Insurance Fund. He was banging tables, swinging on his chair and exchanging Hi-5 with some colleague and then issuing threats to the Minister for Medical Services Prof Anyang' Nyong'o. Honestly, is this how serious issues are addressed? Mr. Atwoli earns Kshs 2.4m every Month and he can afford Health Care of his choice, and here he is trumping on what Prof Nyong'o and the NHIF is doing to make Health Care accessible to all in a manner that betrays the fact that he has an issue to pick with Hon Prof Nyong'o, and not the Health Care Scheme as such. As one who sits in the NHIF Board, Mr. Atwoli should be able to articulate his ideas and issues at the Board level where his knowledge or lack of the same can be put to the iron curb of reasoning. Instead, he chooses to call a one man press conference where he compromises his ways to get Prime Time News coverage frothing in the mouth and deriding over an idea whose time has come. We need the Health Care Scheme Prof Nyong'o is fronting at the NHIF. We also need prudent management of the Scheme as well. But these are serious issues that Mr. Atwoli must not play with to the public gallery. If he wants to leave the NHIF Board, we at The Clean Kenya Campaign are more than ready to step in and we promise, we will not sleep during Board Meetings, and we will articulate issues that are of immense importance to the National Health Care Scheme. Mr. Atwoli must not be used by forces of impunity to fight the Hon Minister on such an important National Issue. Kenyans need this Scheme for it is affordable. The Atwolis of this world have enough money to jump off to seek medical attention whenever he so desires at the time he needs it. What about the people he pretends to fight for? They need this NHIF Scheme more than Atwoli needs it. Mr. Atwoli must stop playing with our intelligence. We are not fools and he cannot manipulate our thinking. Let him seek Prof Nyong'o out and the two of them can sort their issues off the TVs. Let us all work for a Clean Kenya and a Clean Africa as a Transformative Deliverable as we turn 50 in Kenya.
