Hospital workers in ABSUTH lock out patients as they protest over unpaid wages

A heavy protest was held by workers of the Abia state university teaching hospital (ABSUTH) on Monday morning over unpaid salaries.

The workers have not been paid in 7 months and many say they have had enough of the state government's excuses and promises. Patients were locked out of the hospital premises. Photos below;

Pity



This is going to be the worst Christmas ever celebrat d in Nigeria.

Protests and Abia state are becoming synonymous

Heard buhari did a mannequin challenge wif buratai, lai muhammad, HRH SLS, rescued chibok girls, ganduje, patience jonathan etc

OK

7 good months


when my income pass 31st, na to dey squeeze face

ME FTC? there is Hope

it is well

i wonder how some top state officials can be wicked in heart. imagine owing a family man/woman for seven months.... This is really annoying.

This our APC government self na wa o. Everywhere na STRIKE action.

na wa ooooooo na only for abia state

I thought it was only the west side that owes salaries ni

Why..... Nigerian? Even sick people are feeling the heat....

7 months? Nigerian breed of Politicians are genetically wicked, how do u expect them .to survive?

Thats wickedness...they are the reason nigeria is this bad...selfish pricks

.

Hospitals in Nigeria that are owned by state and LG areas find it difficult to fund them,selves because the patients pay very low hospital fees....and this has a bad effect on the budget.

Then there is the fact that funding from the state has fallen due to oil price shortfall.

In my opinion, teaching hospitals should be privatized....so that govt can focus on primary and secondary health care.

Ok..

alaskido:
This our APC government self na wa o. Everywhere na STRIKE action.

So APC now controls state salaries in ABIA abi

If only we could lock up the gates of our State and Federal House of Assembly, Mayb things will turn around
Those guys don't know key issues to discuss, all they do is to share the money.

They should make laws that will enforce the executives to never owe health institutions.
