Huddah to politicians: Stop hiding stolen money abroad, build better hospitals at home
By Ascah Mwango, October 18, 2025Kenyan socialite and businesswoman Huddah Monroe has called on leaders to stop looting public funds and instead invest in improving hospitals in the country.
In a series of Instagram stories, the Rich Beauty CEO criticised the culture of wealthy politicians and businesspeople flying abroad for treatment instead of developing local healthcare systems. She said Kenya’s leaders should focus on building world-class hospitals at home, where they can receive proper care surrounded by their families.

Huddah said it was heartbreaking to see prominent figures die in foreign countries instead of receiving quality treatment in Kenya. She emphasised that being close to family and friends during illness gives patients strength and hope, which is essential for healing.
“For the rest of the living humans in politics, stop looting money & going to invest & hiding it outside the country. Remember, OLD AGE is knocking! Would you rather fly in a doctor or fly your sick body? By the time you land in India or the USA, your organs have already started eating each other,” Huddah stated.
Adding;
“But at home. In your presidential hospital suite, a doctor will be there monitoring you & giving you the presidential treatment you deserve. You get to even live another 20 years or more.”

Huddah urged leaders to use public money responsibly and ensure that future generations have access to modern hospitals within the country. She said if Kenya had well-equipped medical facilities, even the nation’s most powerful people would have no reason to seek treatment abroad.
“Seeing our leaders & wealthy businessmen still dying outside the country and not at home ground or peacefully in their beds next to their loved ones is really heartbreaking. Because I know what a good hospital can do. First, being around family & friends strengthens & gives you hope you which is essential for healing,” she said.
Huddah Monroe’s sentiments come days after the death of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, who passed away in India while receiving treatment. Raila, a longtime opposition leader and champion of democracy, died at the age of 80.
