- Let’s shift our focus to the deepening agony of thousands of workers of organizations that have been hit hard by the stop-work order by the us government, an order that has also left thousands of beneficiaries of critical programs funded by the us government in uncertainty. Many affected non-governmental organisations have been forced to send workers on compulsory unpaid leave while others have opted to close shop. And as Serfine Achieng’ Ouma reports, health stakeholders are emphasizing the need for domestic health financing to break the dependency on donor funding for critical programs.
Somebody should tell me how SHA SHI system should cost 104 Billion. And we are out Begging 4 Billion.
This is melancholic 😒 😔, despondent and wretched
I luck words to express my feelings 😕
104 billion is where the billionaires without breaking a sweat get their money.
It's a humongous scam to benefit Kasongo and cronies. For as long as this gangster government stays in power, we are f***ed in the a**
Because hii serikali imejaa na masenge.
It's all bullshit
We need to put pressure on this government we dont need aid when our money is being misappropriated everyday..we need accountability
Painful reality..
But the other day you criticised Gen-Z for protesting, what kind of pressure are you talking about? Empty words pressure??
Correct 💯 spot on
I approve these message ..am a Kenyan/ Canadian …yes
@@kibindankoi9824 and who said he criticized the Gen Z? Or he isn't one who actually even protested? His main message is pressure.
Very nice😁 kaende kaende...we must learn to fend for ourselves and hold to book those who fail to account for our taxes
I THINK TRUMP WAS SENT FROM HEAVEN TO WAKE UP ALL CITIZENS OF EVERY NATION TO ASk THERE GOVERNMENT WHY DO WE DEPEND ON DONOR AID..LET AFRICAN POLITICIANS MOSTLY FEEL THE HEAT 4:35
People are happy
VHiv patients have started mourning cause deaths shall occur.@@mishmaina6884
Check caps, might be stuck!!
State house is renovated by 11 Billion. Ruto wears watch worth 6 Million. Gachagua was impeached by almost a Billion and we are Carrying a Begging Bowl to U.S and Europe.
you know I try to find words to describe how pathetic, laughable and unserious our government is for relying on America to run its programmes
@@Thgn-yt3epDon't you see how pathetic out of topic you are?
@Sharleen you can make a good opposition in Murima to keep the government in check than been part of the corrupt and incompetent regime as you were since independence.Kudos tu Murima,now be responsible and make Kenya great 😂
We want to show how we mind USA, plus leaders making us look like monkey, that is why white always see us beggars
@@antibiotic7238 sure mate, they can see Pres Ruto regime as corrupt, not forgetting all has happened because of previous regimes.
"Americans Taxpayers Money not meant for Kenya".
Haha.africans will suffer under trump.africans start to learn how to survive alone.dont be too dependant on others
Nonsense. This works wide problem.
True . Africa we need to deepend on ourselves... For how long shall we be fed
You don't get,sorry@@rosemaryokoth8382
You are funny does your tax money help Americans@@rosemaryokoth8382
It is unfortunate that when America came to help, we let it become their responsibility to take care of our citizens with their taxpayer money. We call ourselves a sovereign nation but we are just beggars relying on aid while misusing the money that would have otherwise been put in these sectors to make us independent. The politicians have not had a need to be accountable because they knew they could eat the money they tax Kenyans with and then let America take care of what should have been their responsibility. It is a huge wake up call to Kenya.
Spot on 💯 correct
Trump is revolutionalizing things.
The problem with African politicians is greedy,,once we elect them,there plan is to loot and become very rich...They carry money in gunias and hide it in other countries.
Very true
I honestly cannot be mad at Trump kwani Africa itashinda iki omba omba mpaka lini, si basi turudi colonization kama tumeshindwa kumanage nchi. Put america first Trump, African leaders should now put their own people first learn from Trump instead of crying.
I think we are still slaves because our governments worship the West.
The cup is bitter to swallow but its the naked truth my fellow kenyan😢
Kenya Kuna doo mob.
Sent from a bedsitter from Kimende
@@KINGMANJARO_343 Not even Trump our African youngman from Burkina Faso, for only two yrs he has done tremendous job worth emulated. We in Kenya have resources that could transform this country more than Dubai with the brains that we are blessed with. But alas the people we've been trusting as leaders are just wolves, irresponsible, idiots and tribalists. How would we prosper. It's high time my fellow countrymen and women to wake up take votes and put new leader ship in this country. All previous leadership or politicians should be thrown out and made to account.
It's about time. THANK GOD!!!!
It was always going to get here. I worked in the policy space and our reliance on donor funds is a grave concern.
Tumetenga, tumepanga, tumeweka mikakati...Whats the use of Getting aid for their own benefits??? This is the Most Useless Government Kenya will Ever Have???
Uhuru government was as responsible as Rutto is.....all politicians are responsible. Its time to change the narrative now.. for all kenyans vs politicians
Yes we broker our future with 200shilings
Hakuna mradi wao hukamilika.
I am currently on holiday in kenya. This country has become appalling. Kenyans you need to get rid of Ruto🚫 fast. This president has brought nothing but Greed, Corruption, Hunger, Poverty & Mismanagement!! 💯
Mind your own business...umbwa...

@@justiceserved2418don't be rude.
Very stupid kutukana mtu wakati anasema ukweli@@BlaqStar4524
Thank you very much for speaking my mind. He simply a thug!!
Mudavadi is net worth over 6billion, Kabogo over 7billion, Raila over 10 billion, Ruto don't even ask. And we are still beggars??? They all never earned this money through salaries..
Ongeza volume
It's so sad 😞
Earned through stealing from the Kenyan people
And gachagua 10billion
Raila 10 billion???.
Hiyo ni pesa ya kujoin broad-based government pekee yake. He is worth more
Trump wants the best for United states, to say the least, so let the so called Kasongo be a true patriot also and give Kenyans the best.
As a muzungu mzee I want to see strong relationships between Kenya and USA 🇰🇪 🇺🇸 . The comments about the resilience of the Kenyan people are spot on.
Trump can't stop that about Kenyans
We will migrate to Russia and China
Fyi the first black president of the united states' is a Kenyan
Nakupenda 😘
@@deekiki1924fisilet 😂😂
And why are our mps still earning 1million per month??? In Germany 🇩🇪 an mp earns ONLY 3-4 times more than primary school teachers, police officers, electricians, truck drivers, bus drivers, plumbers etc. The gap in Kenyan salaries is way too too wide. This is pure theft.
Very true.those r greedy politicians not leaders
They are ravenous wolves
Same thing I always ask myself. You go into government to serve the people not to be served....If you wanna be a millionier or billionaire in Africa, go to the private sector, not civil service...
We need to wake up
@@geo6460 well said 👏 👍
And parliament has a budget of 40billion...what for?
Dependency syndrome is what makes us tolerate corruption. Let the aid go!
by the comments they need aid due to internal corruption
The comments are great. I hope we can restart really critical help. Most of us in America love your country and people. We are being robbed by our own government and we need to get it sorted out. ✌️❤️
Facts. Need to sort out the good ol US of A first. Clean house, make pertinent changes and the rest of the world can benefit.
It appears Kenyans are also being robbed by their government, who would a thought every Nation runs the same scam.
❤❤❤Presindent Trump plz dont change the gear pls we have corrupted goverment take everying to make goverment of kenya useless expediture imso blessed for jobwell done zenye wameiba warudishe kwa kazi hii upuzi Ikomwe kabisaaaaaaa
If only our resources are managed well,we should not be worried by donor fund withdrawal, unfortunately we have poor leadership as Africans and that's why we are in this mess😢😢
Yeah! Wait until the election man and you will be screaming "MUDO WITU" and "MUTHAMAKI WITU" ...I am sure you want a guy from central to be the president no matter what. Doesn't matter if he is like the past presidents and brings nothing new to the table.
We have been there. We know
GBU. We have poor leadership in SOME African nations. Mali, Niger, Boukina Faso, and now Rwanda, South Africa: they have woken up! Kwani wengine Bado ni ostrich!
Exactly.. we need to look into ourselves first,and not blame Trump's for wanting what is good for his people
it's simple...America First.
umbwa wewe
@@thagtv9359there is no need to be abusive. He has a reasonable point. President Trump is basically putting his country's health affairs first before the affairs of any other country. We should stop depending on foreign donors to fund 90% of our health systems. USAID is an independent agency of the US government that offers foreign subsidies and development assistance to citizens. Besides, USAID's financial manpower emanates from the US Congress, which is the American taxpayer money. Now that President Trump is gradually putting USAID under the state department, he as the president of the US, has the powers to halt the agency from pumping money to the third world countries in the name of monetary aid. Instead, that money should be used to augment the economy of the US. It is high time the GOK fund the healthcare agencies in Kenya from the massive taxpayer money they obtain annually rather than depending on foreign aid, and expecting that the US should do their work for them. It is a wakeup call for the GoK and any other African country negatively affected by Trump's executive order of halting American's state agencies from funding foreign nations and pulling out from WHO respectively.
If Trump puts America first. Ruto puts Kenya last. Thats the difference in leadership here.
Good job mr Donald kenyan government should learn in a hard way this time round, opportunity comes once
A matter of common sense .stop corruption and fill the gap.....
Ruto Must Go today not tomorrow .... Stop Corruption
@@temmytayo4264 Very simple and clear. Kenya has money its only that we lack integrity in our leaders.
The gravy train is over. Kenya loses atleast kshs2bn in corruption every day. That alone can fund free health care, education and social housing. Time to shape up or ship out.
That number should be a wake up call..2 billion😳
Let them pack and leave also. The defence practice at the coast should be sent packing as well. Kenya must stop depending wholly on aid.
We will never leave Manda
@@Pheonix-o9nlol
@@Pheonix-o9nwe will see.
😂😂 do they depend on Kenya. Ask your leader to stop corruption and misplaced projects.
Yeah . That's not happening
I'm happy I learned skills. I can be a freelancer anyday. Walai Kazi white-collar inaishanga vinoma!!
Learn farming skills,technical skills etc is good cushion...corporate job is for paying for car loans and buying land/bonds/shares but huwezi omoka.
Trump has exposed how useless our government is
LOL....That is brutal....
For real 😂😂😂😂
Trump gonga kichwa ikufe...our taxes are enough to stand with our country problem is corruption 😢😢
Don't make yourself comfortable in a job, taking car loans and all manner of loans. Save as much as possible because that job can end any time. Save your money and it will save you in future.
Trump good work..let Africa learn to depend on themselves
Napenda qwetu ata nkilala njaa❤❤❤
Same situation for many of us here in Uganda, having worked for a USAID funded project in humanitarian setting in one of the Refuge projects, 😢😢 we have been sent home for 3 months of unpaid leave following the Executive order.
LORD have mercy on us in these hard times
As Uhuru said about this issue: "STOP CRYING!"
Ingia pia kwa uN Kuna wamejificha hapo they have been offering support to slums creating problems with no solution ndio wasiloteze kazi
Too many ngos and problems
The beginning of sanity, African had gotten used to and Dependance of aids not healthy for any developing Nations, Germany last year also slashed the development budget by almost 40%.
I think it is a wake call for Africans to use diligently what they have for Africa is not poor it is only poorly managed!
What was the use of independent?????if Africa Can't free yourself from being slaves that has been engineered through this behaviour of aid begging.....
I don't know but I think Trump might be right somehow? Does we care for our owns who are in dire need? Misplaced priorities must stop! Thank MEGA
It’s MAGA
Mega😂😂?@@jennywinter3025
It's much possible for domestic health funding! We just need to fight corruption end wasteful government expenditure and get our priorities right!
Kenyns I'm so proud of you after reading comments. Kasongo will have to find a way out now. And if he tries to increase taxes as a means for that..................
The new sheriff is in town. Pack and leave 😊
good job my president i voted for you
Who said that US tax payers should be paying your bills. Put your own house in order.
The lesson is do not rely on anyone in life at individual or at national level because people change overnight
Congratulations to trumph so I did not known why we call ourselves independent or we are coloniesed still or why do we have ruto as president. Or is trumph is our president??. Why do we have gratudes of health sectors earning?
Yes wakuje wafanye farming na tufanye mandamano sisi wote huku.. We are fix this nation
😅😅😅😅
I can't imagine kasongo was saying he doesn't need the dollars
Loool!
This country and other African countries can be self-sufficient. If President Traore can do it Kenya can certainly do it. Start with the over inflated salaries fancy cars and houses of politicians! Stop minerals being sneaked out of the country through the back door...
What has Traore done exactly? Please explain!!! By how much has the country grown?? Traore is just a Russian Puppet!!!
Itabidi tujitegemee kupitia uwezo Mungu tayari ametupea.
Good move so that we can vote wisely
Kenya needs to stand on its own feet and stop depending on foreign aid🙄🙄
Big up 2 super prezzo trump 4 cutting foreign aid 2 kenya 😊 let Kenyans hold their hustler government accountable
That is American Aid not our money, we should also develop the habit of funding our own projects.
the question to ask on ourselves are we paying taxes to US ? IF the answer is no then we might blaming the wrong person 🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿
Who received the 104Billion paid out for SHA/SHI ? Kenyans need answers.
If the government could only stop the unchecked spending put fuel guzzlers off the road stop renovations that are not necessary on hold Kenya can stand but the greed in our leaders is appalling
Why are Kenyan men relying on foreign men to feed and treat their families? They should allocate resources to the health sector and, most importantly, to quality food, which will help alleviate much suffering and build immunity and resistance to opportunistic infections.
Human way?????? Let those in Government deal with corruption for the sake of Kenyans and let America focus on Americans.
tumepanga tumetenga hajasema kitu
Ako busy DRC for the time being
Huyo ananga huruma ata atajifanya ajaskia😂😂😂😂
Trump is doing africa a great favour. We need to stand up on our own feet
USAID management in Africa live lavish lifestyles and drive high-end cars, the money doesn't reach the poor and needy.
Teaches us to love our country.What we take for granted,might be all we have under the sun.
Watu waliapishwa juzi juzi wameanza kazi mr.kutenga bado ana tenga tu miaka 2 na nusu
We shudda not been dependent on foreign health benefits while we could use our own. Totally don't blame Trump for this strategic but unfortunate move
Kenya should be independent
Its their money ,we don't pay taxes in usa so its time to wake up and think about ourselves than the aid that comes with strings attached
We Africans we have enough resources to stand up on our own but since our leaders they don't want to be accountable instead they use those funds inappropriate manner that benefits themselves.
Utakuwa ni uzembe wa Hali ya juu kama miaka yote hawakuweza kujua jinsi ya kutengeneza dawa zao wenyewe.
Trump is 200/ percent more right
This is what happens when a country doesn't have a transition strategy. Don't expect donor funding to go on in perpetuity. While at the same time entering into expensive long term debt, with little or no ROI. It's time to cut down on the government, spending. This is just a tip of the iceberg.
Kenyans must now learn how to help each other.
Congratulations president trump.umalaya should not be funded
People must stop sleeping around and be royal if they really love their life and the life if their loved ones
Arvs,cd and free checkup made People stupid God has said enough is enough and if we continue then soon like sodom we gonna be swept,,God is working through this Trump,,corruption has to stop in our country and people have to free their eagle and pride and face reality
Lord please have mercy , just asking the previous govt didn't find it deem to start something for us Kenyans Incase of uncertainty, so sad that people have lost jobs because we relied on outside aid, please current govt do something drastic
I love this.some people taught they own those organisations. Go home.
Its a wake up call to the Kenyan govt, as if they even learn or care
Kenya has over 40 pharmaceutical manufacturers with capacity to produce ARVS but we so heavily rely on USAID,where individuals get rich and embezzle funds.....Ruto should make kenyan industries great again not import everything
Needing help when helpless and being self reliant when able are not the same thing. Taking aid from the needy for no good reason is cruel.
All housing projects /Shi Sha sho Shu can take care of this please.
Africa pesa zao ni za kununua bunduki za kuuana Congo etc
4.2billion is something small
Tuwache ujinga
So sad
Waaah Waaah Waaaah........ Kumbavu Zetu!!!
Good work Trump
We should be ashamed of ourself after being independent for 60+ years we are still relying in aid money. Politicians elected in Kenya are our reflection and we need to stop being egocentric.
Kenyans🇰🇪,don't need foreign aid,when billions of shillings are being squandered,stollen by few corrupt individuals.
Be ready for the next harsh finance bill
Kenyans don't pay taxes in US You have your own country, deal with your issues
Survive without my taxes!
Thumb up Trump! Kenya is not short resources, by now kenya was supposed to be a donor country. More than enough was pilfered.
Even China was denied GPUs by the US - results: they innovated and shocked the whole world. With the funding gone, it's time we innovate too.
It's very good let governments stop corruption and fund their projects let them stop lining their pockets
I went to look for job there i was told i must have a Got Father...wacha wakuje niajiri hyo msee

I love what trump is doing, the one who's coming in Kenya will also do the same,let all the people stay in their own land.
That's good coz we can years and years being a beger were now grown up since uhuru
KK steals money. We pay taxes for what?
Why are we funding Kenya ? Make your own country great again . I’m tired of my tax dollars going to all these stupid programs ! What a scam !
The donation sent goes to the pockets of greedy individuals
Waria Somali ametajirika sana na hii mambo ya Masada hapa kenya Aki sijui this time watafanya aje
The fact that we overlie on donations to create job opportunities. I tell you kenyans yet to feel it more
Kuna God
😂
It's shameful to beg for donations, and all go to corruption deals
This is time for Africans to wake up
And yet we lose 2 billion daily as a government 😢😢😢
