@magatinewsDoctors in Nyamira and Migori on Thursday said they will only end their strike if their demands are fully met. In Nyamira, the doctors told the Star the strike provides the first acid test of new Governor Amos Nyaribo's capacity to confront county problems. On Wednesday, KDMU Nyanza branch chairman Kevin Osuri said they want the issues facing the medics in Nyamira and Migori resolved as quickly as possible to end patients' agony. Nyamira needs an additional 80 to 100 doctors if it is to resuscitate the health sector, according to the union. In Migori, the doctors have accused Governor Okoth Obado's administration of dragging its feet in dealing with their demands even as patients continue to suffer.
