The MP said its sad day when a country values foreigners more than Kenyans.

“I therefore call upon President Kenyatta to terminate this failed experiment and restore dignity to Kenyan doctors and the Kenyan people. Let the Cubans go back to Cuba and let Kenyans serve Kenyans,”he said.

” Cuban doctors are not offering any skill that is not already locally available and furthermore, they do not even speak the local languages and therefore cannot effectively interact with patients,”he wondered.

He said there are enough institutions of higher learning in Kenya offering courses to train Kenyans – there is no need for them to go to Cuba when the same course is offered here.
