495 allied health professionals get financial clearance
Government has finally given financial clearance
to about 495 members of the Coalition of Unposted
Allied Health professionals.

The group had spent Monday night at the Health
Ministry sleeping on bare floor and benches as
they accused the government of showing bad faith
in addressing their concerns.

According to the group, the Ministry of Health has
continuously failed to recruit them after the
completion of their national service in August
2016.

All assurances by government represented by deputy
Health Minister, Tina Mensah on Monday that their
issues would be addressed as soon as possible fell
on deaf ears.

The group who continued their protest at the
ministry burst into excitement Tuesday evening
when the deputy minister emerged with documents
proving that the Finance Minister has cleared them
for posting.

The jubilant health workers ended their protest
immediately and disappeared from the ministry with
their luggage that they brought to the ministry
bent on securing this victory.

An executive member of the Coalition of Unposted
Allied Health Professionals told TV3 they are
excited the government has kept to its words this
time after several disappointments.
He was grateful to the deputy Health Minister.
