@FredShaka @Wassajja_Aiden @Godfrey__K @gidth2 @Enoth814Enoth @MStylesug We’d close one eye and assume that it’s enough, but it also downgrades our value. After internship everyone else (employer etc) just throws at you that or less. It is not enough.

[ALTON 🩺 @NewtonAllan6]

The government has said that medical interns will be paid the same amount, UGX 1,268, 929 which is subject to tax resulting to a net pay of UGX 1 million. To me, this is only a short term solution.

What happens to the upcoming cohorts? Shall medical interns have to go on strike every time just to get paid?

We must end this cycle once and for all. Let the government scrap the National Health Policy that was sneaked in and come up with a properly drafted, permanent solution to the remuneration and welfare of medical interns.

And let’s be clear: the demand is UGX 4 million, not UGX 1 million.

We need a lasting solution, not temporary fixes every time doctors and interns protest.

@TinkasiimireBa2 @_adriane_k_21 Honorable, we still have the issue of Court injunction to pause the implementation of the policy.

And the state attorney just decided to delay because they can.

[Mugenyi Henry @MugenyiHenry_]

Medical interns, handcuffed and under police escort, are being led into Buganda Road Court for a bail hearing this morning.

The eight were remanded to Luzira Prison last Friday following their arrest amid the ongoing standoff over internship deployment and welfare.

I am dedicating this Sunday praying for our Professor @RubabindaJr, the @TheUMAofficial and our young intern doctors. We have a duty to facilitate interns to do their work.

Don’t say we didn’t tell you. When interns are not available you’re straining our seniors who you also don’t want to pay. @MinofHealthUG pay #allmedicalinterns

[Abdul Mambo Bukenya Jr. @BukenyaMambo]

After seeing all this, Hon @CHRISBARYOMUNS1 and @MinofHealthUG how can we really separate emotions from all these things. It is high time you stopped the feign inactivity and resolved the matter because it is costly to all of us. @PoliceUg release our leaders.
