Implement 25 percent salary upward review, nurses tell state govs

The National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives has called on the 36 state governments and the Federal Capital Territory to implement the 25 per cent upward review of the Consolidated Health Salary Structure and hazard allowance.

The association also called on state governments to implement revised call duty allowance in their respective civil services for nurses and expedite actions in the implementation of the CONHESS to encourage nurses to stay back in the country to render services to the people.

NANNM made the appeal in a communique issued on Sunday at the end of its two-day National Executive Council quarterly meeting in Abuja.
