Thumbs up the person that posted this. Just tried it and it worked.
Any one in Lagos here??

Some frontline health workers who worked with the Lagos State Government during the second wave of COVID-19 have accused the government of not paying them the allowances due to them for four months.

The affected health workers, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said they were not happy with the way the state government had refused to pay them.

“I was among those that worked at the Indo isolation centre from September to November 2020; I was not paid. I also worked at the Infectious Disease Hospital, Yaba from January to April, I was not also paid. We risked our lives and that of our families, not considering the poor welfare package from the state government,” one of them said.

Another health worker who does not want her name in print, said, “I was among those that worked at the isolation centres located at the Mainland hospital, Yaba, from January to April 2021. It is very disheartening that despite all our efforts in taking care of patients, we were not paid our allowances. We were not well taken care of; we worked tirelessly and had sleepless nights.

“At a point, our health was compromised, we summoned the courage to take care of ourselves. Despite all this, we haven’t been paid our allowances for four months. We were not given the allowances entitled to us. No accommodation during the time we worked at the isolation centre, we used our personal money for transportation. We were surprised when the Governor said on Arise TV show recently that all COVID-19 allowances for health workers had been paid till May 2021.”

One of the affected health workers also said situations like this were reasons why health workers were leaving the country to practice where they would be appreciated.

She said, “Situations like this are what makes people take backstage when it comes to being patriotic. When I decided to volunteer, I had a lot of fears and worries. Leaving a barely six months old child to battle the fight was the height of being patriotic.

“Someone has to do it right; some of us were bold enough to take the risk not minding what happens eventually. Who knows the long-term effect we still carry around as no one understands the virus 100 per cent to date? The peanuts we were to be given as allowances have not been paid.

“The kind of risk we took wasn’t just for money sake, this is a country I can’t lift a finger for anymore once it has passed my regular work and pay. If the governor claimed he has signed the payment, then where is the money I worked for? This is a country where health workers are leaving every day, yet some people think it is not a problem.”

The state Commissioner for Information, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, in an interview with our correspondent, however, dismissed the allegation.

He urged the affected health workers to seek clarification from the state Ministry of Health.

“It is not true that the state government is owing them the allowances due to them. All those who participated in the COVID-19 response have been paid,” Omotoso said.

I Just Love and Admire the Guts of President Donald Trump!

Despite the Whole Media Hoax and Hatred, this Man stands Strong..

A whole lot of Crazy things would have happened if Someone like Trump was not president!

GOD ALMIGHTY Specifically fixed him there for Times as these..

Please what are the crazy things that would have happened?

I listened to the breakdown of how the school feeding program will be carrird out and I just laughed in pigin. Some thoughts came to mind.
1. These children were been fed in school as a way of encouraging them to attend the school.
2. The feeding program was suspended when the government closed down schools nationwide because of the pandemic.
3. All of a sudden, the government wants to restart the program again even though schools are still on lockdown.
Its clear that this is another way of diverting public funds to personal pockets. The school feeding program is just the channel that is being used to divert public funds. Its so sad. I encourage all to watch this documentary " The real story of Nigeria "after watching, you will see that our problem as a country has been with us right from independence up to this very day and it will continue to be with us.
To be honest Nigeria cant be better.

NaijaOlosho:
Buhari relaxing lockdown in Abuja, Lagos and Ogun is a stupid decision.

It shows that the FG don't know what Virus we are dealing with.

I was thinking he is going share food and cash to Nigerians while lockdown continues

Nigeria will regret ever having a foolish dictator

Lol. So after they share money and food to all Nigerians, whats next Do you think the virus is going to be wiped out overnight? What the President did is commendable.

HermesParis:
Ena don start... Why do we have these kind of set of people in this country/World. Those who sing Hossana are same who shout Crucify Him. What exactly do you want??

They have been movement from 10am to 2pm, you people shout, wail, its not enough. Now he says move from 8 to 6pm, u still cry and whine like babies, am so certain of he said, let there be free movement, some wud still say why do we have to move freely when there is deadly virus out there.

This is to tell you that no matter what you do, people out there will always talk. They will always look for way to bring you down.

I keep saying, you all who are shouting hunger, endlockdown, will be the same people blaming buhari for lifting lockdown when God forbid, the virus spreads and high death rate is being recorded.

Remember this, uneasy is the head that wears the crown. Not all the time you must oppose, and if you want to do, do it objectively.

Exactly. No matter what the President say, people will still fault him. Some people when listening to the speech was paying close attention to his intonation and looking for grammatical errors which they will later use to fault him. All the conditions/ guidelines given by the President is commendable. We all should collectively adhere to the guidelines as its for the good of all the citizens.

GreatResearcher1:
You cover the female's face and not covered the male. tomorrow you talk about equality.

Am taken aback by your comment. Did she rape her father? The little girl is the victim in this horror. Exposing her face / identity would later on lead to stigmatization. If she was ur niece, cousin or sister, would you rather prefer her face being exposed?? We all are entitled to our opinions but everything should have a limit.
Thanks.

Its funny how we can complete this building within a short period of time. Its a good development but my problem is do we need to be in a situation like this (COVID 19) in order for our leaders to do the needful?? All over the country governments are erecting makeshift hospitals and isolation centers. They are only doing this because they can't travel out for treatment if they contract the virus. May God open our eyes to see clearly and hold our elected leaders accountable.
