Nyamira County’s Sh7.6 million ($72,771) hospital gate – Kenya

Residents in Kenya’s Nyamira County claim that the county government spent Sh7.6M ($72,771) on a gate for a hospital that lacks simple drugs, has no clean toilets and a perimeter fence.

This claim has been denied by the Director of Health for Nyamira, Dr Jack Magara, saying Sh6.6 million ($63,196) was rather the figure used to put up the gate, and a host of other amenities including a waiting area for the patients.
