The Nakuru War Memorial Hospital board has asked for three weeks to reopen and start offering services to patients, one year after its closure on January 23, 2024.

On October 1, 2024, Court of Appeal Judges Mohamed Warsame, Weldon Korir and Paul Gachoka ordered the immediate reopening of the hospital under a joint management of a five-member committee.

However, the reopening stalled over Sh2.3 million electricity and water bills allegedly accumulated since its closure.

On Monday, however, the management said the hospital will be ready to resume operations in the next three weeks.
