Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN) Secretary General Seth Panyako now claims that his life is in danger.
The latter has been very vocal against the national and county governments while leading the ongoing nurses to strike.
Speaking on News Night on Citizen TV Tuesday night, he claimed that his role in the strike has offended some state organs which are now out to hit back.
Panyako, a former nurse at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), claimed that his life is in danger, adding that he is facing a possible arrest.
"I know my life is in danger and I am being hunted and can be picked anytime. However, I don't fear," he said.
He remained unmoved, maintaining that he will proceed with his role at the helm of the union.
"Even for Kenya to gain her freedom Kenya had to fight and we had casualties. I am ready to bite the bullet," he added.
He faulted quarters accusing him of defying court orders ordering him to end the strike, saying that it is the task of the respective counties to reach a deal with their nurses.
He added that he has not received any court order directing him to act in a particular way.
