KMPDU National Executive Members, led by Secretary General Davji Atellah address a media briefing on the Kiambu Healthcare crisis on October 4, 2025. [Benard Orwongo, Standard]The Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists, and Dentists’ Union (KMPDU) has said the implementation of agreed basic salary adjustments will proceed, ending months of delays caused by repeated calls for new multi-agency negotiations. The Ministry of Health and the Council of Governors backed the union’s position, confirming that further multi-agency engagements would only delay the process. The union warned that accurate tracking of arrears from July 2025 will be critical to ensure full reflection on members’ payslips. The union described the resolution as a victory for members after a protracted engagement with government agencies.
