I am pleased to join and address the NEPARC Meeting hosted by the Kenya Red Cross.

I saw once again the unity, passion & cooperation between the African Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.

We, the partners of Africa, should empower the sustainability of Africa-led efforts.

Once again we are reminded :

1. Of the need to reinvest in the capacity of public hosptls to respond to mass casualty incidences.

2. An effective pre-hospital care capacity, such as E-PLUS AMBULANCES KENYA of Kenya Red Cross is a central to our health system

Saddened. Inspired. Hopeful.

Deeply saddened by the death of Mrs. Khairoonisa Molu.

Mrs. Molu was the oldest member of Kenya Red Cross, joining in the 1950's when we were a branch of British Red Cross 🧡.

She served the society with dedication & passion.

May Allah forgive her sins & grant her paradise.

To the Lord is our return.

Those who know him well all agree Ali Hassan Mwinyi was a good man.

He knew one day his return will be to his maker. He didn't 'walk on the earth with conceit and arrogance.'

May he return to his Lord pleased and well pleasing to his maker.
