Healthcare does not just belong to the doctor; it directly affects every Kenyan. Actually, a doctor's working condition is a direct reflection of a patient’s outcome 🏥

- Devastating to announce the demise of 28 yr old Dr. Stephen Mogusu who has succumbed to COVID-19 complications At the time of his death he had not received his salary for 5 months,had no insurance & his young family left with no compensation.Too steep a price for Patriotism.
- The KMPDU condemns in the strongest terms possible the abduction of one of our member, @Dr_AustinOmondi who was among the mobilizers of #MedicsforKenyans offering free medical aid and blood donation drive to help injured protestors. Join the search for him. #REJECTFİNANCEBİLL
- We observe the trend; Governors visit health centres & hospitals, parade health workers, decry poor state, intimidate health workers & all sorts of PR stunts. We will not stop you, but while at it make your contributions to the health care sector in your counties.
- Based on the RTWF dated May 8th, intern doctors were to collect their posting letters by July 7th, 2024.The same was promised to us by @Nakhumicha_S in the presence of the president in State House. We have therefore decided to occupy the MOH day and night starting on July 8th.
- All protocols observed, we will be occupying Afya House untill ALL medical interns are posted in line with the 2017 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) . @Nakhumicha_S @MOH_Kenya #OccupyMOH
- KMPDU mourns the loss of eminent nephrologist Prof A J O Were who has succumbed to COVID19 complications. He was the president of the African Association of Nephrology & Deputy Director of the East African Kidney Institute. A teacher & mentor to many,he leaves a great legacy.
- Dear Kenyans, the culture of lies in this government is spiralling out of control... we must put a stop to this culture of lies.
00:00 - SHIF IS A CAPSIZING SHIP SHIF is a capsizing ship! There is too much bilge water for it to sail. We have repudiated the act from November 2023, with one message: it will deny Kenyans access to healthcare. @abimwachi @Davji @MiskellahMD #RejectSHIF
- We condemn in the strongest terms the shooting of our SG @Davji by the police this afternoon when he was leading the Medical interns in peaceful March.The doctors of Kenya have endured enough!This is the straw that breaks the camel's back. #postmedicalinterns
- KMPDU mourns the death of Dr. Doreen Adisa Lugaliki who passed on due to COVID-19 contracted at the work place. We reiterate & remind GOK & ALL Private health facilities that the Welfare,Occupational Safety & Health of frontline workers is a non-negotiable Minimum!!
- The government of Kenya will have to decide in the next few days whether to have doctors in the hospitals.
- The curfew was not meant to restrict doctors from performing their duties. Several reports of doctors & health workers being mistreated by police despite proper identification.The Police MUST respect health workers. @NPSOfficial_KE @InteriorKE @StateHouseKenya
