The stand-off between the kiambu county government and doctors is escalating, with the strike now entering day 128. The kenya medical practitioners, pharmacists and dentists union is calling for the dissolution of the kiambu county government, accusing governor kimani wamatangi of arrogance and negligence of the healthcare sector and its workers. As Emily Chebet reports, the governor has dismissed the union’s claims of rising deaths during the strike insisting that services in kiambu hospitals remain uninterrupted.
