Medics demand the arrest of assailants who attacked nurse at health facility
National Nurses Association of Kenya President Collins Ajwang’ addresses participants during a conference at Bamburi Beach Hotel in Mombasa in early October 2022.
Kenya Union of Clinical Officers castigated the attack, stating that similar incidents have been distressingly commonplace for nurses.
Sports and Culture Cabinet Secretary Ababu Namwamba distanced himself from the woman’s actions and condemned her behaviour.
Umbrella bodies representing healthcare professionals, including doctors and nurses, have condemned a viral video in which a nurse on duty is being harassed by two disgruntled individuals at a hospital in Port Victoria, Busia County.
The clip, which goes on for almost four minutes and which has been circulated widely on social media, captures a woman, who was accompanied by an equally unruly man, unleashing a storm of verbal abuse directed at the nurse while invoking the name of a prominent politician.
