doctors strike ends

On Thursday, 24 December, President Uhuru Kenyatta intervened to put an end to a week-long medical strike that crippled the health sector.

Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU) acting Secretary-General Chibanzi Mwachonda disclosed that Uhuru played a major role in terminating the doctor’s strike.

“Doctors will provide services for you in the facilities and we continue to engage and hope that come January, we shall continue these types of engagements to ensure during the pandemic, all our doctors are assured of safety.

“On that note, I would like to declare that the strike by KMPDU has now been called off, we shall continue further engagements to follow up on all other matters that were raised in the industrial action dated 16th November,” stated the KMPDU Secretary General.

“I’m happy that we have come to this resolution at a critical time, we were hoping to give this gift to Kenyans over Christmas and we have managed to do so,” Health CS Mutahi Kagwe stated.
