What's in a title? Clinical officers sue to be 'doctor'

What’s in the title doctor? This title, awarded to medics after training, is at the centre of a court battle between clinical officers and the Attorney General, the Clinical Officers Council, and the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC).

Ibrahim Kimani Wainaina and Daniel Koome Ndegwa have a bachelor’s degree in clinical medicine. In their case before High Court Judge Lawrence Mugambi, they say they represent the Clinical Medicine Graduates Association.
