Kaduna State government has warned against the planned strike by the Congress of Health Workers Unions and Associations in the State. The State government has, therefore, introduced a register to be signed by those willing to work with the government, despite the salary-cut.

Kaduna State government has warned against the planned strike by the Congress of Health Workers Unions and Associations in the State.
But the State government in its response, said the government rejects the strike threat and would regard persons who fail to show up at their assigned places of work as having forfeited their employment. The statement added, “it is instructive that the strike action was announced on the same day that many health workers were showing evidence on social media of the N450,000 they had received as April 2020 incentive.
For the avoidance of doubt, it said, “the salary deductions introduced in April 2020 apply to everyone who works for KDSG, from the Governor to the most junior civil servant with a take-home pay of more than N50,000 monthly.” “Low risk staff are receiving N5,000 per day. These classifications were done by the Emergency Operations Committee on which health professionals, including the NMA, are amply represented.”
