By COLLINS OMULOMore by this AuthorThe Council of Governors (CoG) has been urged to intervene to avert nurses’ strike set to start on Monday over failure by several counties to implement a return-to-work deal agreed on two years ago. Institute of Human Resource Management (IHRM) national chairman Elijah Sitimah on Sunday called on the CoG boss Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya to convene a meeting with the various county public service boards and the nurses’ union to iron out their differences. “We would want to urge the CoG and the boards in the various counties to come together with the nurses’ union to make sure that we have an amicable solution. We do not want to see another protracted strike that is going to harm our citizens,” said Mr Sitimah. MEDIATION OFFERThe IHRM boss said that they are ready to step in as mediators to avert the looming strike following their successful intervention during lecturers’ strike last year.
