Why Tanzanian doctors are going crazy to work in Kenya… and culture shock that awaits them

Kenyan doctors during their strike

Tanzanian doctors are demanding to be told whether President Magufuli will be making impromptu visits to Kenyan public hospitals, before they accept to be hired by the Kenyan government. The medics want assurances that they will not 'flee' to Kenya only to find themselves under the same nasty operating conditions as in Tanzania.

"If I have to come to Kenya it had better be an environment where I can afford to laze around all day without worrying that Mwalimu John might make an impromptu visit and find me idling, facebooking or tweeting," said one Tanzanian doctor on condition of anonymity.
