Former President John Dramani Mahama has urged the government to promptly settle the arrears owed to trainee nurses across the country. He emphasized the current struggles faced by the trainee nurses due to unpaid arrears and called on the government to prioritize the payment of these arrears as a matter of urgency.
Speaking to some trainee nurses on Saturday he noted “Come and pay the nurses you owe them almost 30 months of arrears. “Some of them have left school without receiving their allowances and some of them are going to leave school again without receiving their allowances.”
Mahama assured them that “it is about jobs and NDC is committed to jobs and so we are going to create the situation where we can employ as many of you as possible.”
