The Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria (MHWUN has lamented that governors of 12 states in Nigeria are allegedly maltreating their members by owing them several years of salary arrears, and by also failing to standardise their payments .
Emphasising the imperative of state governors making the welfare of health workers a premium priority, Adebisi posited that this remains the panacea to the recurrent brain-drain crippling the health sector in the country. “As we speak, we have nothing less than 12 states that owe health workers their entitlements. We are engaging them as a union and we are hoping the governors and everyone concern will do the needful soon.”
