It also noted the non-payment of COVID-19 inducement allowance to some of its members in federal and state tertiary institutions. The AGM, in particular, demanded that for normalcy to return to the health sector, the FG should ensure: Payment of medical residency training within 72 hours, since the money meant for it is available and verification of the list for payment has been completed; Payment of the arrears of salaries of members on GIFMIS platform within 72 hours, while the migration process continues; Withdrawal of the case against NARD in court in the interest of peace; and Payment of withheld August and September...
