The Coalition of Bonded Unemployed Diploma Nurses, Midwives and Allied Health Professionals has threatened to picket the Ministry of Health if its members are not posted before 4 July, 2017 to begin work.
In April this year, members of the coalition called off their picketing at the Health Ministry after they reached an agreement with authorities to get them cleared financially for their immediate postings.
But the coalition in a statement said it was “frustrated and disappointed” that although the Minster of Health, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu, announced to them that they had been able to secure the financial clearance for their postings from the Finance Ministry and for that matter he had directed the Chief Director at the Health Ministry to work and facilitate their postings to enable them start work on 1st July 2017 as stated on the clearance, they were yet to see or hear any official communication from the Health Ministry with regards to their postings to any health facility in the country.
To this end, the coalition said: “We are giving the ministry of health and all the stakeholders responsible for our postings to release our postings before 4th July, 2017 other than that we will be reporting to work at the health ministry on the 5th to 6th July, 2017 and when necessary, we will further report to the Flagstaff House on 7th July, 2017 to deliver a petition to His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, the President of the Republic of Ghana, to intervene and get us posted immediately.”
