Cure or poison? Experts poke holes on Raila, Ruto pledges on health

As Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance and Kenya Kwanza presidential candidates Raila Odinga and William Ruto market their ambitious manifestos on health, experts have cast doubts on how they will be implemented to benefit Kenyans.

However, health experts have poured cold water on these pledges, saying the two leaders have both been in government and may not offer anything new.
