Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) CEO Lily Koros on Friday angered a section of social media users after appearing before the National Assembly Health committee to table a report on alleged rape cases reported at the institution.
The proceedings that were aired live on some television stations revived angry reactions from a majority of the public as netizens raised concerns over the CEO's apparent denial of having any knowledge of such cases at the hospital.
Ms Koros reiterated that no rape cases had been reported by patients at the institution, insisting that the statements shared on social media were malicious rumours.
"I have a very big book for complaints with me here and I can assure you no rape cases have been reported. Furthermore, we didn't have any mother of twins admitted to the institution by the time the social media reports broke," the CEO stated before the Committee.
