Junior doctors at KATH declare strike over unpaid salaries
Junior doctors at the Komfo Anokye Teaching
Hospital in Kumasi in the Ashanti region are
embarking on strike.

They are demanding the payment of their salary
arrears for the past nine months.

In a statement Monday, the doctors said government
has turned deaf ears to their concerns for far too
long.

“ It has become very necessary for us to take
such drastic decision basically because we
strongly believe that the government has not given
us the due treatment with reference to our letter
which we sent to the minister of health on May 16
and all the stakeholders involved in our salary
processing and payment including, the office of
the President.

“….We are therefore telling government that
until our full nine months salaries have been
paid, we are not coming to work,” the statement
noted.
