Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Health Aden Duale has inaugurated an independent investigative committee to probe alleged malpractice in kidney transplant procedures at Mediheal Hospital in Eldoret.
The committee, chaired by Dr.
Elizabeth Bukusi, was tasked with investigating the allegations, reviewing Kenya's legal and ethical transplant framework, and auditing consent forms, donor records, and governance documents from the past five years.
Speaking during the inauguration, Duale issued a three-month investigation period to conclude on July 22nd for the committee to complete its work and submit a detailed report to the government highlighting his desire for the truth. "We want a process rooted in truth, not one driven by optics or bureaucracy," said Duale.
