The Oyo State Chapter of the Medical and Health Workers’ Union of Nigeria has instructed all its members to begin a seven-day warning strike starting from Monday, June 24, 2024 in order to emphasize the union's demands.
The union President, John Fabunmi, conveyed this directive in a notification letter sent to members in various health institutions, ministries, departments, and local government areas and sighted by Rocketparrot on Sunday.
He said the strike action was imperative to press further the demands of the union, revealing that the union has reminded the State Government of its grievances but nothing was done to assuage the situation.
The letter states that despite the 14-day ultimatum given to the state government to address grievances, no action has been taken.
As a result, the union has decided to proceed with a seven-day warning strike to emphasize the need for the government to address their concerns.
The strike will involve all members in health institutions, ministries, and local governments, and is scheduled to begin at 12:01am on Monday, June 24, 2024. Further actions may be taken after the warning strike.
