“This donation is going to save us alot we have only eight public facilities (directly managed by KCCA) and the city has over 80% private facilities, so as the city we find ourselves overburdened of the workload […] Most times we find ourselves out of stock on these basic drugs,” Zalwango stated.

She highlighted some of the challenges faced by KCCA hospitals as drug shortages, inadequate human resource, infrastructure among others. She noted that the donation is set to alleviate some of these struggles by bridging the gap in medical supplies.

“This is a much needed consignment, we appreciate it and we commit to use the drugs to the purpose they have been given us and we offer free services,” said Zalwango.
