In a remarkable turn of events, Grace Njoki Mulei, the 61-year-old woman at the center of the controversy surrounding the Social Health Authority (SHA), has had her name cleared and her dignity restored.
Thanks to a powerful show of support from Members of Parliament, the Ministry of Health bowed to pressure and withdrew the charges against her.
Njoki made headlines last week after her arrest at Ladnan Hospital in Eastleigh, where she had gone to seek treatment. She was accused of causing a disturbance at the Ministry of Health’s offices and was later released on a Sh10,000 police cash bail.
