The Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU) has declared that the ongoing doctors’ strike in Isiolo County, now in its 17th day, will continue until the county government settles all outstanding salary arrears and remits statutory deductions owed to doctors.
The strike began on June 2, 2026, after a 21-day notice issued by the union expired without action from the County Government of Isiolo.
Speaking during a meeting in Isiolo Town on June 19, KMPDU Deputy Secretary-General Dr Dennis Miskellah said the industrial action would remain in force until the county government fulfils its obligations to doctors.
