His Name is Father William Fryda, a missionary from United states, a Medical doctor by profession . He first came to Kenya in 1991 and worked for charity at Nazareth Hospital . He later outsourced funds from friends and well wishers abroad and established St.Mary Mission Hospital in Langata Nairobi . St Mary was originally meant for the poor ,destitute , disabled etc …mainly from Kibera and the surroundings .
During KANU era ,foreigners were not allowed to own or run properties in Kenya ,Father Fryda therefore appointed a group of Local Catholic Sisters by the Name of ASSUMPTION SISTERS as the administrators of the hospital while Father Fryda outsourced for more funds . Everything went well and several years later ,a Nakuru Kikuyu Tycoon of Catholic faith,Mr Joseph Boro Ng’era was impressed by Father Fryda’s work of charity and donated his land of 42 acres for another mission Hospital ,St. Mary’s Mission Hospital Elmentaita . Father Fryda constructed the New Hospital Single handedly with the help of friends and well wishers . The Assumption Sisters were also granted administrative powers of the new hospital . Father Fryda also constructed his living house within the hospital Premises . Later The Assumption Sisters and other Catholic priests transformed the charitable hospitals into a full time profitable business without the knowledge of the father and when Father Fryda questioned the move ,he was threatened with deportation and at one time , goons were sent to attack him in his house at night.
The hospital ownership dispute arose pitting Lonely Father Fryda and a gang of Assumption Sisters and several catholic Priests . It’s also suspected that a very powerful politician is behind the forcefull take over of the hospitals . Last year a Nakuru court granted total ownership of the hospital to the Assumption Sisters and forced father Fryda out. Currently Assumption Sisters group is busy throwing out all the workers who are sympathetic to father Fryda . All the well wishers, Locally and worldwide , who contributed immensely to the establishment of the hospitals have vowed to fight to the last minute and rescue the hospitals . Note , there is no record of Assumption Sisters or Catholic Church contributing anything towards the hospital .
