PHOTO BY: KEVIN TUNOIKapsabet County Hospital was paying a man accused of being a fake doctor nearly Sh150,000 every month. Investigations show Ronald Kiprotich Melly continued to work at Kapsabet County Hospital six months even after his colleagues raised queries about his qualifications. In the seven months he worked in Nandi County, the 'fake doctor' worked in the maternity section at the county hospital, in delivery cases and conducting caesarean sections for a month before being shifted to the out-patient department. The county government blamed the Health ministry for posting Melly to Nandi, saying it only acted on orders from Afya House to accept the doctor, who was supposedly on his first posting after internship.
