The strike had paralysed operations in public hospitals.

Governor Samuel Wamathai said they have reached an agreement with the nurses' union.

Wamathai said that more talks will held in later days.

“I am calling upon the nurses to return to work immediately as they await for further negotiations into backdating the promotion letters,” said Wamathai.

The nurses wanted their promotion letters backdated to November last year as the ones they received were dated May 12.

 “The recruitment process of additional nurses is underway to bridge the gaps created by those who have already left the hospitals,” said the governor.
