The Joint Health Sector Unions and Assembly of Health Care Professionals (JOHESU) has declared a seven-day warning strike, set to begin at midnight on Friday, September 25, 2024.

This decision follows the expiration of a fifteen-day notice of industrial action issued to the Federal Government, urging immediate attention to their demands.

Speaking to journalists in Abuja, JOHESU’s national chairman, Kabiru Minjibir, outlined the key issues that led to the decision.

He emphasised the union’s call for the immediate implementation of the Consolidated Health Salary Structure and payment of a 25% arrears review for the period of June to December 2023.

Minjibir also highlighted other crucial demands, such as an upward review of the retirement age for health workers, a tax waiver on allowances, and the immediate payment of COVID-19 inducement hazard allowances, among other issues.

He urged all union members across the country to comply with the strike directive, reiterating that the decision was necessary due to the government’s failure to address these long-standing grievances.

This warning strike is expected to last for seven days, during which JOHESU members will withdraw their services in pursuit of their demands.
