Kenya - Nairobi County Government suspends 500 workers (2013)

In September 2013, the Nairobi County Government suspended 500 workers, including union officials, for allegedly taking part in an unlawful strike. Police used teargas canisters to disperse a protest calling for the implementation of a collective agreement concluded with the Nairobi County Government on 1 September 2012. The Interim County Secretary Lillian Ndegwa engaged private contractors and youth groups as replacement workers.
