JOHESU THREATENS TO EMBARK ON INDEFINITE STRIKE

More troubles loom in Nigerian’s Health Care Sector, as Joint Health Sector Unions, JOHESU has given the Federal Government a seven-day ultimatum to meet its demands.

While the National Association of Resident Doctors is still on strike, JOHESU also threatens to embark on an indefinite strike from the twentieth of this month if the Government fails to address all its concerns.

The Health workers are demanding for the payment of promotion arrears to their members, the abolition of scale to scale promotion and the implementation of all Court judgments given in their favour.

This comes as the Federal Government struggles to settle the Resident Doctors who have been on strike since September Four.

Addressing a News Conference in Abuja, JOHESU President, Mr. Biobelemoye Josiah, condemned Government’s failure to meet their demands which he said had been on negotiation table since May 2012.
