Pay us now, rail workers tell government

Kenya Railways workers in Kisumu yesterday demanded that their outstanding dues should be settled before the corporation is privatised through concessioning.
The workers said they needed their claims processed now , so they can prepare well for the transition period.
"We should not wait any more. We need our dues paid and done with forthwith because we don't want to linger in the uncertainty of the future once we are done," an emphatic worker identified only as Otieno stated.
The Government has disclosed that the bulk of the cash-strapped parastatal's 9,000 strong workforce will be redundant by December.
