International Women’s Day is a time when we celebrate women; our mothers, wives, sisters, aunties, nieces and colleagues. Availability of adequate and safe blood for every mother at their point of need is therefore essential in keeping mothers alive. I have in the past expressed my commitment to ensuring the availability of safe blood and blood products countrywide. During this International Women’s Day, I reaffirm this commitment to ensure that we keep mothers alive. I, therefore, invite all Kenyans to #choose to challenge by stepping into the National Blood Satellites across the counties to donate blood.
