PRESIDENT BUHARI ORDERES RELEASE OF WITHHELD SALARIES OF HEALTH WORKERS.

Date:

President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered the Finance, Budget and National Planning Minister Zainab Ahmed to release the withheld salaries of Health workers, including doctors, whose salaries were seized while enforcing the no-work, no-pay policy.

Labour and Employment Minister Chris Ngige, confirmed the development while answering questions from State House reporters in Abuja.

He said the President has since approved the authority letter to release the funds of the resident doctors for September and October 2021.

According to Ngige, the approval covers members of the Joint Health Services Union (JOHESU) who went on strike in 2018.
