BONU petitions MoH&W

The petition started off with a march from Gaborone Senior Secondary School grounds to the ministry. In the petition that was handed to the ministry, BONU president Obonolo Rahube stated that nurses play a critical and indispensable role in the health sector and therefore deserve to be safe when serving the public and saving lives.

“The nurses’ nature of duty demands a safe and secure working environment for them to be safe and to carry out their duties without any looming threat to their psychological and physical security. For years, nurses have endlessly complained and raised concerns about their security in health facilities.
