First Lady Margaret Kenyatta (above) yesterday announced that her ultimate dream is to set up Beyond Zero Hospital.
She said the referral hospital project was her next dream even as she continues running the First Lady's Half Marathon whose third edition is slated for Nyayo National Stadium on March 6.
"This is my next dream. We need a good hospital for women and children," said the First Lady who is the patron of the Beyond Zero campaign and who has successfully ran the first two half marathons, one in London and the other in Nairobi.
Mrs Kenyatta spoke at State House, Nairobi when she hosted 21 female doctors, who graduated from University of Nairobi's Medical School in 1981.
She made the announcement as Kenyans joined the rest of the world in marking the World Cancer Day.
