The government has suffered a major embarrassment after Grace Njoki Mulei, the 61-year-old patient dramatically arrested for protesting against SHA failures, was freed on a mere Ksh 10,000 cash bail—with police unable to decide what to charge her with.
Mulei, who was abducted from Ladnan Hospital by men claiming to be DCI officers, was initially accused of creating a disturbance at the Ministry of Health, but sources say authorities scrambled to justify her detention after intense public backlash.
Her lawyer blasted the arrest as state intimidation gone wrong, exposing the government’s desperation to silence critics instead of fixing the healthcare crisis.
With Mulei now free and the SHA system crumbling under inefficiencies, the big question remains: Will the government fix the mess, or will more Kenyans be arrested for demanding healthcare?
