Health CS Cleopa Mailu has accused PS Nicholas Muraguri of undermining his authority during negotiations to end the doctors' strike. Mailu said Muraguri was one of those he appointed to the mediating team, alongside other ministry officials and Cotu secretary general Francis Atwoli. Atwoli further accused Muraguri of inciting doctors against the CS to portray him as incompetent so that he (Mailu) can be impeached.
