By EUNICE KILONZOMore by this AuthorOnly four counties have fully implemented the return-to-work plan that made the 100-day doctors’ strike get called off on March 14, their union has said. Kenya Medical Practitioners Pharmacists and Dentists Union secretary-general Ouma Oluga said this was “purely due to good will by the four counties”. ELEVEN COUNTIESThe audit by the union shows that 11 counties, while they have paid their doctors since December to last month, they have not beefed up the allowances. Interestingly, two counties – Bungoma and Tharaka-Nithi, paid their doctors half salaries for March when the strike was called off mid-month. Instead, the union has agreed to extend the timelines for the signing of the Recognition Agreement and the CBA.
