Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has disclosed that an amount of GH¢177 million has been released to the Health Ministry to pay allowances owed to nursing trainees across the country.
Dr. Bawumia revealed this at a meeting with nurses and midwives in Accra.
According to him, the money would be paid on Thursday to clear all outstanding arrears.
“This Thursday, the Controller is transferring GH¢177 million to the Ministry of Health to pay the nursing training allowances. So I have also alerted Dr. Okoe-Boye to be on standby when the money hits the Ministry of Health account, they should move it quickly to the accounts of the nursing trainees so that they will have their alawa. It will drop.”
