Nakuru Governor Susan Kihika has underscored the importance of early screening to combat chronic kidney disease.
She warned that kidney infections should be diagnosed early enough through screening to avoid complications or even death later in life.
In a statement to the press, Governor Kihika urged the residents to take advantage of the ongoing free screening of the disease at the Nakuru County Teaching and Referral Hospital (NTRH) and all the public health facilities spread across the 11 Sub-Counties.
She said Nakuru was ready to observe the World Kidney Day scheduled for the 13th of this month at NCTR.
