The Secretary General of the Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN), Seth Panyako, has launched a scathing attack on the country’s devolved health system, saying it has failed to deliver quality healthcare to Kenyans and is plagued by inefficiency and mismanagement.
Speaking at a funeral in Kanyarakwat in West Pokot county, Panyako accused the devolved system of fragmenting service delivery and weakening the health sector, calling for the national government to reclaim control over healthcare management.
