The doctor strike in Kenya has started its second week, with hundreds of Kenyan doctors protesting in the streets. They are carrying placards and chanting against the Kenyan government, saying that it has failed to implement promises, including a collective bargain agreement signed in 2017 after a 100-day strike. The strike was initiated by Kenyan medical practitioners, pharmacists, and dentists (KMPDU), where the doctors’s demand better pay and working conditions.
