A Kenyan doctor in Cuba committed suicide because of depression, the Star has established. Oroko said while the Cuban doctors in Kenya are treated like kings and queens, Kenyan doctors are suffering in their country. KMPDU opposed the move saying the foreign medics got a better deal than Kenyan doctors got under the 2017 CBA. The deal put the Cuban medics in Job Group S, each getting more than Sh800,000 monthly from the Kenyan government. Oluga took issue with what he termed unfair working conditions given to Kenyan doctors, compared to the Cubans.
