Huduma Centres and government offices risk being shut indefinitely from Tuesday next week as civil servants and doctors threaten to strike.
According to Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDU) Secretary General Davji Atellah, doctors and civil servants will be on strike on Tuesday, March 18. "If these matters are not resolved, we're not just going to resolve to just demonstrations and protests; we're actually going to issue a strike notice on that 18th and proceed on strike, which will involve all the doctors and all the civil servants," Atellah insisted.
However, if the government will not have met their demands by then, doctors and government workers will issue a strike notice on the same day and proceed on a full-blown strike.
