There was real drama at Akidiva Memorial Hospital in Suna Migori Kenya early this week after a group of angry men stormed the health facility demanding the release of their wives who were detained after undergoing C-section delivery.

The angry men accused the hospital of setting up double standards. This is after their wives booked for caesarian delivery services without prior notification.

The hospital claimed it stopped the Linda Mama services under National Hospital insurance Fund (NHIF) abruptly.

The Linda Mama services package focuses on pregnant women and infants. It purposely facilitates access to affordable and quality health services.

“They are demanding Ksh30,000 (approximately over Ugx1 million) before discharging patients. Despite the Linda Mama policy covering the women,” One of the angry men identified as Odhiambo Benard said.

In other news story earlier published by Newslex Point, a pregnant woman identified as Mukiri Emily, 28, from Nyeri County Kenya will spend 30 years in prison for killing her drunkard husband following a serious argument.

Nyeri High Court found Mukiri guilty to a minor charge of murder. The court reduced the crime to murder after appeal negotiating with prosecution.

This pregnant woman also admitted that in August 2018, she killed her husband identified as Mukio Mwiti, aged 34 at their home in Muthinga Shopping Centre in Tetu.
