It should be known that doctors are not asking for any increment of pay. They are simply refusing their pay from being deducted.
If we should live within our means, then why pay CASes?
This we shall resist to the very end.

In 2017, KMPDU wanted 2 governors voted out, (Munya of Meru and Isaac Ruto of Bomet) for mistreatment of doctors. It was well executed.
In 2022, KMPDU wanted two governors voted out, (Nderitu of Laikipia and Waiguru of Kirinyaga). It is well executed.

Doctors unanimously chose to continue with the strike until the issue of interns is sorted. Whatever it takes in terms of time, resources, and sacrifice.
That has to be respected 💯.

You now understand why medical interns earn 200k. Thank you !!
Please, my junior colleagues and interns, stop the insults. Choose respect instead. We have assured you that your issue SHALL be sorted. Not in the combative way that you people expect. Remember, there are a myriad of ways to catch mice.
Be respectful.
Our team did its best. Some gains are secured, and others shall require our grit to achieve them.
To our interns, we still got your case. Don't give up !!
For now, we opt for truce. End of strike !!

Just because the captain chose to take a different route doesn't mean the destination will change. He could be avoiding hitting an iceberg that can capsize the ship.
To our interns, the destination is still the same - CBA206.
I was not able to respond efficiently to a medical emergency today due to lack of gasoline, so we lost the patient. Am hurting!
I want Uhuru to take responsibility for the death.
Mr. President, before you tax civil servants for NSHIF, NSSF, housing levy, tell us:
1. How are you going to ensure our money is not lost in corruption?
2. What are civil servants getting in return?

The young don't see a future in their country because it has been sold by the present and past leadership.
Their jobs are sold to the highest bidders and kins of politicians.
Their business opportunities have been snatched by those close to the mighty places.

Many think that trade union leaders should be in combat with employers. No !!
The employer is the one to solve your issues, and thus, a cordial relationship with them should be maintained at all times.
When agreements are reached, handshakes are made.
1. The government has slashed doctors' pay, sending them on a strike, culminating to no public healthcare.
2. Non payment of NHIF claims to private and mission Hospitals, where alternative care could be sought by NHIF card holders.

The Pokot bandits are a hard nut to crack because they are solid. Government intelligence systems can't penetrate them. They seem to be a perfect formidable, formless, impenetrable force that Sun Tzu describes in his book about war.

It is clear that this opportunity meant everything to this family. The tears tell of a past riddled by moil and toil.
Let the prosperous stop bribing their way to get such government jobs. They deprive such destitute families of a chance to climb out of the pit of poverty.

Two governors that I wanted voted out:
1. Nderitu Mureithi - Laikipia.
2. Ann Waiguru - Kirinyaga.
Luckily wananchi listened. The atrocious acts against doctors should not be forgiven.
General Ogola left us another General 😪.
He left him with ethos of courage, charisma, simplicity, and humility.
Let your children inherit good values, not wealth alone.

Joined Laikipians in the inauguration of their newly elected Governor Joshua W. Irungu. He immediately commenced duty by reinstating the 61 doctors and other medics who were illegally dismissed by the outgoing regime.
On behalf of KMPDU Southrift, we thank Governor.
Outgoing Governor Laikipia Ndiritu, jail is awaiting you for contempt of court against reinstatement of doctors. This I vow to deliver to your stinky doorstep.
Congratulations to our county boss HE. Stephen Sang and your deputy HE. Dr. Yulita Cheruiyot for your resounding victory to continue serving the great people of Nandi as Governor and Deputy Governor respectively.

Congratulations on this launch of drugs.
However this should be the last time doing this embarrassing quadriannual event.
The true measure of drug availability is when patients find medicine on the pharmacy dispensing counter, not this political show.
This photo was taken on 16/04/2015 at Zagreb university in Croatia when 147 students lied on the ground for 147 seconds in solidarity with the 147 students that had been killed by terrorists at Garissa University in Kenya the previous morning. Tonight it had be Croatia.

Being the best, smart, intelligent, disciplined, and hardworking attracts punishment in Kenya.
This is well exemplified by the brutal slashing of doctors' pay by GOK, ostensibly being led by a PhD President.

Earlier today I made an impromptu visit to Pumwani Hospital after receiving complaints over cases of laxity at the facility. I immediately suspended the hospital’s Spt Dr Catherine Mutinda & two others, after uncovering 12 bodies of infants who died at the hospital mysteriously.
The fact that we have 4000 jobless medical doctors with MBChB is a sign that our state has failed. These are doctors alone, not accounting for the other professions.
The arrest of the DCJ is meant to intimidate the judiciary and also an act of "revision" that was openly confessed by the President after the unfavourable petition ruling. These stories of tax evasion and bribes are just decorations.
My take.
My most sincere condolences to the Kenya Defence Forces family for the loss of your Chief of General Staff and valiant soldiers of the various ranks of service.
May God grant you the grace and fortitude to weather this difficult moment of grief.

The President launching a private hospital brings a bad image and message about the seriousness he has in public health care. It is not well advised. He should leave this to junior state officers.
Does it mean he supports private healthcare more than public?
