Over 12,000 Registered Nurse Assistant Clinicals (RNAC)and Registered Nurse Assistant Preventive (RNAP) are still home after the ministry of Health opened a portal for them to apply for recruitment a month before the 2020 presidential and parliamentary elections.
According to the concerned RNAC/RNAPs group, after six months, none of its members has been employed although it was claimed that the ministry of finance issued financial clearance for their employment.
“leadership together with all members of concerned RNAC/RNAPs group 2019 wishes to express our displeasure on the delay in our postings process. For about six months now after accessing the portal, our colleague degree and diploma nurses that we all accessed the portal on the same day have already started work whiles we still rot at home”.
The group, therefore, refuted claims by government officials that all 2019 batch of nurses and Midwives have been posted. He said members of the group have been home for three years unleashing untold hardship on them.
The public relations officer of the concerned RCAC/RNAPs Tenedu Ebenezer told Starr News that, ” recent engagement with the Ministry on 11th April 2022 revealed our data is with the MOH and not with the agencies to continue our recruitment process”.
The group has given a week ultimatum for the ministry to recruit them, failure will lead to massive picketing and subsequently demonstration.
