What you need to know:

  • In the MOU, the county government committed itself to consider doctors due for promotion as well as provide medical cover for all doctors on the payroll.
  • The county government further promised to employ more doctors within a five years’ time frame to meet the current clients demand and give five doctors car loans and mortgages.

The Nakuru doctors’ strike that was scheduled to begin on Monday has been suspended until further notice.

This is after the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Union (KMPDU) signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the county government to suspend the strike, whose notice was issued on August 11.
