Kisii governor James Ongwae has said that doctors and nurses will at the end of this month receive their salaries and allowances for the 100 days they were on strike.

Speaking on Wednesday, Ongwae said his government had received the money from the Ministry of Health.

Mr Ongwae, the chairman of the Human Resource, Labour and Social Welfare Committee at the Council of Governors, said counties had been waiting for the money from the Health ministry and will now disburse it at end of the month.

“Doctors should not worry because, at the end of this month, their money will have been disbursed,” he said.
