A strike notice by doctors in Mombasa has been called off following successful negotiations with the Mombasa County Government, leading to significant improvements in employment terms.

• 147 doctors are set for promotion, and 64 contracted doctors will be moved to Permanent and Pensionable status.
• Key figures involved include Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Nassir and the Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU).
• The agreement also addresses pending statutory deductions, with full clearance promised by September 2026, and guarantees minimal political interference in medical operations.
