Nurses in Kakamega will not take part in the nationwide strike scheduled to take place on Monday following fruitful negotiations with the county government that has agreed to address the union's grievances.
Speaking to the press at the Kakamega General Hospital on Friday, Nurses Union Kakamega Branch Secretary Eliud Molenje praised Governor Fernandes Barasa for his quick intervention, which will see patients continue to get medical services as further negotiations go on. "Each county has its own unique challenges.
Branch officials and the executives sat down, engaged, and agreed on several issues.
We decided to suspend the strike with the blessings from the national office," he said.
