Monday, May 11, 2026 - A medical practitioner attached to Embu Level 5 Hospital is on the spot after he was captured on camera asking for a bribe from a patient while under the influence of alcohol.
The video was secretly recorded by a man who had taken an
ailing relative to the facility.
In the clip, the practitioner, who works in the orthopedic
section, is heard demanding Ksh 2,400 to attend to the patient.
The man accompanying the patient explains that he is facing
financial difficulties, prompting the medic to reduce the amount to Ksh 1,200.
The video>>> has sparked outrage on social media,
with many calling on the County Government to investigate the incident and take
disciplinary action over claims of misconduct and reporting to work while
intoxicated.
