Residents in Ndia have petitioned Kirinyaga County Government to correct the mess at Sagana sub-county hospital following unending challenges.
Lack of a perimeter fence has been termed a major challenge exposing the health workers and the patients to dangers.
Isaac Juma recounts how strangers stary into the facility from any direction due to lack of perimeter fence.
“We have dogs and livestock feeding in the compound. This is a great danger as our people are exposed to risks,” said Juma.
Kirinyaga Jubilee Party Chairman Muriithi Kang’ara has decried poor security at Sagana sub-county hospital.
Kang’ara said the health workers and patients in the hospital are being exposed to extreme danger.
“Since the hospital has no perimeter wall and animals and people are easily getting in and out without any control,” he said.
He appealed to Governor Mumbi Waiguru to intervene as a matter of urgency to the rescue of the Sagana people.
He spoke after he received a Covid-19 vaccine at the facility when the health workers recounted their tribulations to him, especially those in night shifts.
“ The county government should allocate enough money to fence off the hospital noting that security of health workers are of much paramount importance to the county,” he said.
