Nurses in Kisumu have vowed not to return to work until their demands are met. The Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN) officials accused the county of deliberately refusing to implement their return-to-work agreement signed on November 2, 2018. In the agreement, all nurses are entitled to nursing service and uniform allowances, which have not been paid from July 2018. Opetu said it’s unfortunate that every time they try meeting county officials over their pay, they are always given excuses. KNUN officials thanked Migori, Machakos and Mombasa counties for implementing the pay deals.
