The Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU) is demanding the dissolution of the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) board over bribery allegations.

• KMPDU has called for an independent probe and vetting of the KMPDC following an alleged audio recording of a member offering a Ksh.1 million bribe.
• Key players include KMPDU, led by Secretary General Dr Davji Atellah and National Chairperson Dr Abidan Mwachi, and the accused regulator, KMPDC.
• The union is threatening to withhold regulatory fees until the Council is restructured, citing a compromised system and constitutional principles of transparency and accountability.
