NRH in crisis as more health workers are dismissed

Last week about 22 doctors and 15 nurses received dismissal letters after they ignored a court order to return to work and continued with the strike.  The striking public sector employees are part of the over 90,000 government employees pressuring the government for a 16 percent pay rise.

The affected cadres include administration officers, laboratory technicians, dental staff, and support staff. Mortuary attendants, cleaners, gatekeepers and kitchen hands are among the support staff shown the door.
