I would prefer a hospital be named after me rather than a street. For legacy purposes because hosis are rarely renamed even in westen countries.

I would be more concerned if it didn't have a morgue. Any hospital worth it's name has to have one. Irrespective of the quality of care in any hospital, some patients will inevitably die. where are they to be preserved while their relatives are being notified?
As for the name, methinks kibaki has realized that his legacy may just not withstand the test of time and may be overshadowed by the previous 2 admins. Kenyatta this, moi this, nyayo that...20 years after his rule what will the young kenyans then associate his term with? we are bound to see more of this as his term comes to an end. self actualization.
It is a curious fact that of all the illusions that beset mankind, none is quite as curious as that tendency to suppose that we are mentally and morally superior to those who differ from us in opinion.

@Sumuni,
You never know.Maybe some Wazuans have organised to by-pass morgue when they final depart.

After reading this posts i just realised how lucr*tive mortuary business is. Assume 5million deaths a year in kenya, we have less than 1000 units in kenya meaning an average of 5000 papp‘patients‘ each. I work with a small figure of 1000 meaning three guys daily, i am out of wazua to go start my dream business.

this is direct translation. In the english language, You ask the lady ' will you marry me?' Now try translating this in your first language.

@QW25071985; your ignorance is annoying! ALL District Hospital have a morgue! It is a standard requirement for a health facility of that category.

Nairobi has a very serious shortage of public hospitals, in fact it has the worst ratio in the country. The only other District Hospital is Mbagathi. For that reason, Nairobians always go to Kenyatta even for minor ailments, yet KNH is a Referral Hospital.

But about that name: I don't like the idea. I don't think it is wise to name a public institution after a living person.

If it is true that Lucy asked for the gift, then it would have been best to ask her to name it.... publicly. It would have been very embarrassing for her to stand up during the official opening and say something like "I, Mama Lucy Kibaki, hereby name this hospital after myself, that is, Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital".

Imagine that!
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

The word MARRY does not translate to "OA" in Kiswahili. It actually means "OLEWA".

So, when a man goes on one knee and asks a girl "Will you marry me"

What he means is "Utakubali nikuoe?";

But not "Utanioa?"
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

I saw it from the outside sometimes back and was wondering what that great building was. I commend the people who came up with the great idea of putting up this hospital in Eastlands, I believe the bigger part of Nairobi's population lives there.

BBI will solve it :)

I thought it is a public hospital.
