Speaking at Kyuso playground where the health promoters had gathered for the exercise, Dr Malombe said that his dream is to eventually see every CHP in Kitui county issued with a new bicycles just like what has happened in Kitui South and Mwingi North through CMMB. 

According to Governor Malombe, CHPs play an integral role in improving the healthcare of the county especially by linking the grassroot health needs with the available medical facilities. 

Malombe said that his government had already ensured a monthly stipend of KSh3000  is given to all CHPs every month, alongside the 2500 offered by the National Government. 

The governor said that alongside issuing the CHPs with the bicycles, his government would ensure proper maintainance of the bicycles in order to avoid burdening the health promoters with the maintance costs.

He also expressed his commitment in improving healthcare in the county, as well as equip all hospitals telling Kitui residents to dismiss naysayers who are working hard to taint his unmatched development record in delivering development to the electorate.
