During consultations with unions, county executives and healthcare partners it was determined that the county has met most of its obligations. The KNUN, KMPDU, KNUMLO, KUCO and UKCS suspended their strike and told members to return to work. The end of the strike is a relief to patients who have suffered in public health facilities as unions and the county government traded blame over the salary arrears and deductions. Health workers told the Star on condition of anonymity that the situation is dire and the lives of patients in need of operations are at risk. Health and Sanitation executive Judith Attyang’ said they have met all salary obligations.
