What you need to know:

  • The inking of the deal came after a series of talks involving officials drawn from NMS, Nairobi County government and the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Union (KMPDU).

Nairobi doctors have finally ended their strike after signing a return-to-work formula with the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS).

The doctors have been on strike since Friday over lack of comprehensive medical cover, arrears owed to locums, promotions and re-designations among other concerns.
