UPDATE: Aga Khan University Hospital clarifies workers had been notified before being sent home

UPDATE: We have since established that although the university hospital had notified the employees of possible redundancy in 2015, the matter had been taken to court by their union. It lost the case two years later, allowing the university to effect its redundancy notice. 

Hundreds of workers from the Aga Khan University Hospital Nairobi (AKUH N) were left puzzled after their employer fired them without notice on Friday 19 January.
