Nurses from Nakuru County have served one-week strike notice to the county government over unpaid three months salaries.
Led by branch officials of the Kenya National Union of Nurses KNUN, the over 1200 medics marched to the county headquarters to deliver the notice to the County Executive Committee Member for Health Services Dr. Jonah Manjari.
They raised concern that despite a return to work formula signed between the union and the council of governors, Nakuru County was among 12 other counties that are yet to pay three months salary arrears for the period they were on strike.
They expressed concern that they have been unable to service loans and pay school fees for their children. Meanwhile, Dr. Manjari has called for a meeting with union officials with a view to resolving the issue.
