Murang'a County Governor Irungu Kang'ata has revealed that the AfyaKe System is currently experiencing a downtime, blaming the national government for the technical hitches.

In a notice issued on Monday, June 23, the governor revealed that the national government was responsible for the system and thus the county was not in a position to rectify the unexpected downtime.

Regardless, he assured Murang'a residents that facilities had reverted to manual systems to ensure healthcare services kept going. "We wish to inform the public that the Afyake System, managed by the Ministry of Health (National Government), is currently experiencing unexpected downtime.

This interruption is beyond the control of the County Government," the notice read.
