The nurses' union has dismissed the possibility of renegotiating a CBA over which the health workers are on strike for the second week now. The Kenya National Union of Nurses called the strike 10 days ago, to compel counties to sign and register the agreement. CoG further said the nurses went on strike prematurely as negotiations to conclude the CBA were at an advanced stage. But KNUN acting secretary general Maurice Opetu has accused the council of sabotaging the signing and registration of the deal. “It is illegal and wrong for medical interns to work without guidance or supervision by a qualified nurse,” Opetu said.
