  • AUTHORPatrick Kamau 4 years ago from Nairobi, KenyaI agree with you Suba. They have even made it messy such that you do not get replies from NHIF.
  • Suba 5 years agothe M-Pesa payment system is very easy and convenient. However, the almost monopoly it enjoys make it charge us expensively. Let us wait for a new entrance at least to compete with M-Pesa. This will make them lower their charges, which is a burden to the ordinary person.
