The Joint Health Sector Unions (JOHESU) and Assembly of Healthcare Professional Associations (AHPA) have called on the Federal Government to implement consultancy status for pharmacists in Federal Health Institutions (FHIs).

This comes as the Federal Government will from the 2022 budget year set aside N47 billion for the payment of hazard allowances for medical workers.

It said: “We call on the Federal Ministry of Health to immediately circularise positions canvassed by JOHESU/AHPA to sanction erring Chief Executive Officers of Federal Health Institutions that refused to implement the Circular on Consultant Cadre from the office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation for Pharmacists which have been implemented by less than 10 of the 56 FHIs in the country.

They called on the technical team to fulfil its mandate of coming up with an acceptable sum dedicated to the utilisation of adjustment of CONHESS within a reasonable timeline. The Minister also hinted that the government has increased the aggregate money in the 2022 budget for hazard allowance from N40 billion to N47 billion.

On the issue of the migration of some doctors on the GFMIS platform, Ngige explained that there are things that the government cannot do immediately, but needs time to accomplish.
