Kihika's US Birth Choice Sparks Debate on Kenyan Healthcare

Nakuru Governor Kihika's decision to give birth in the US sparks debate. Nakuru, Kenya - Governor Susan Kihika's recent statement explaining her decision to give birth to her twins in the United States has ignited a heated discussion in Kenya. Kihika stated that it would have been inappropriate for her junior staff to see her naked during childbirth. This statement has been met with mixed reactions. "It's a bizarre statement," says one radio host on Spice FM. "It shows a disconnect between the governor and her people." Others have defended Kihika, pointing to the potential for better medical care in the US. The debate highlights broader concerns about healthcare access and class disparities in Kenya. Kihika's promise to build a modern maternity facility in Nakuru may offer a positive step towards addressing some of these issues.
