11 Months Unpaid: Kenyan Healthcare Workers' Plea Amidst Millions in Donations

In Kenya, the plight of healthcare workers has taken a heartbreaking turn. For eleven months, Universal Health Coverage (UHC) workers have gone without pay. This, while Mr. Yes Sir, a prominent figure, recently donated over Ksh 100 million. The video features Patricia Wanja Mutisya, a UHC worker, who emotionally describes the situation. "No salaries for UHC workers for 11 months yet Mr Yes Sir has donated over Ksh 100 Million in 2 months. Wan tam is real." Her words highlight the deep injustice felt by those providing essential healthcare services. The video shows images of workers protesting their lack of pay, emphasizing the urgency of the situation. This stark contrast between the generosity of one and the hardship of many raises serious questions about resource allocation and government priorities in Kenya. The government needs to address this critical issue promptly to ensure the welfare of healthcare workers and the sustainability of the healthcare system.
