"Address Doctor's Grievances, Kenyans Are Suffering "- Yatta MP Robert Basil Tells Government

Member of the National Assembly for Yatta Constituency in Machakos County Robert Ngui Basil has called on the government to swiftly address Doctor's Grievances to end the ongoing strike , saying that many Kenyans are suffering with many more losing lives on daily basis due to lack of medical attention. 

Speaking in Nairobi on Tuesday during the Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party media briefing, MP Basil said that there is a need for the government, specifically Health Minister Susan Nakhumicha to be humane enough, and address Doctor's concerns.

"By today, we've lost many Kenyans due to the ongoing doctor's strike. The government should have handled Doctor's Grievances, but they seem not caring and humane, " said Basil

Basil said that the government has all the means to have its way, if it's willing.

"Our mothers are giving birth on the streets. This is a shame"- revealed Basil

He called on President William Ruto to step in and address the ongoing doctor's strike

MP Basil is one among a section of MPs who have threatened to impeach Health CS Susan Nakhumicha over the ongoing strike.

Doctors have since vowed not to relent despite a court ruling ordering them back to work.

Following Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party press statement, over 500 patients have died as a result of the crisis.

Wiper Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka, during the address, he noted that the ongoing doctor's strike has highlighted the incompetency of the Kenya Kwanza regime in dealing with the healthcare system in the country.
