Duale said Murang’a was among three counties, alongside Makueni and Tharaka Nithi, that had been using the platform before the other two counties moved to the National Digital Health Integration System under the Digital Health Agency (DHA).

Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale has revealed that Murang’a County’s digital health system was hosted on a platform owned by the National Intelligence Service (NIS) under former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government, and not a system managed by the Ministry of Health, as claimed in the ongoing dispute over the county’s health services.

Speaking during an interview with Citizen TV, Duale said Murang’a was among three counties, alongside Makueni and Tharaka Nithi, that had been using the platform before the other two counties moved to the National Digital Health Integration System under the Digital Health Agency (DHA).

“There were three counties that were using a system that did not belong to the Ministry of Health. And I’ll say today that system belonged to the National Intelligence Service under President Uhuru’s government: Makueni, Tharaka Nithi, and Murang’a. And we sat with those other governors, and they all transitioned to the National Digital Health Integration System under the DHA,” he said,
