@ruffydfire It is unfair that after completion of our internship program, they are owing us close to 5 months salary unpaid and a whole lot of arrears. This is unfair and we demand justice. We are also human and deserves what rightfully belongs to us

[oseni rufai @ruffydfire]

We respectfully seek your intervention and public advocacy concerning the prolonged non-payment of interns working at the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC).
For the past eleven months, interns have rendered uninterrupted clinical services at OAUTHC. However, only six months’ salary has been paid, and even that was not in full. To date, our December salary remains unpaid, alongside several months of outstanding arrears.
Despite this situation, interns are still being mandated to report for duty. Although an industrial action is currently ongoing, interns have been specifically instructed to continue working without pay. Repeated pleas, formal complaints, and peaceful protests have yielded no meaningful resolution. The consistent explanation given by hospital management is that payment has not been released from Abuja.
This explanation, however, is misleading. Unlike other staff whose salaries are federally funded, interns’ remuneration is paid directly by the hospital management, not from Abuja. Notably, other hospital staff have continued to receive their salaries, while interns remain unpaid.
This situation has placed immense financial, emotional, and psychological strain on young healthcare professionals who are expected to work under demanding conditions without compensation. It raises serious concerns about labour rights, workplace ethics, and the welfare of medical interns in Nigeria.
We humbly appeal to Arise  TV investigate this matter and lend its voice to our plight, so that the appropriate authorities can be held accountable and justice can be served.
Thank you for your commitment to truth, accountability, and the protection of vulnerable workers.

@oauthcofficial Silence should not replace accountability. We ask those responsible to do what is right. @oauthcofficial ,your interns deserve fair treatment and not the way they are being treated and neglected.
The silence is exhausting!!!!!!!

Healthcare is built on compassion, but compassion shouldn't be exploited. @oauthcofficial interns have continued to serve diligently despite months of unpaid salaries. Behind every lab result & patient review is an intern battling financial strain & emotional fatigue

A Thread...

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

We are tired,frustrated,drained and exhausted.
We ask for fairness, dignity, and the payment of our earned salaries.

@Healthintern22 @oauthcofficial Yes, he said the management can decide to lay off all the interns and recruit new ones all because we demanded for our rightful wages. He was even praising the institution that they recruited the highest number of interns which was false all just to sideline us. #payusoursalary

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

I remember the day @oauthcofficial interns requested to have a meeting with the CMD when they didn't get paid in the first three months of internship. This man legit said "If you know you can't endure,you can leave" ENDURE!
This man is supposed to be a FATHER!!

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

I just pity the next set of interns @oauthcofficial will be recruiting. This hospital will exhaust them mentally,physically,emotionally and FINANCIALLY.@JAOOKENIYI how can someone be so wicked and inconsiderate. #payusoursalary #payoauthcinterns.

I wonder what our offence is,that makes @oauthcofficial treat interns so poorly.Perhaps our only “offence” is our commitment to service and humanity.Why are interns being deprived of what rightfully belongs to them? Transparency and accountability are all we ask. #payusoursalary

[Nrs Fam/Medical Virtual Assistant/Medical writer @Niffygee2]

@Healthintern22 @oauthcofficial Initially, it was 2025 budget not signed, then later, it was a system glitch, and now, it’s late fund release. Cmon, we ain’t kids. We are not backing down

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

@oauthcofficial Other federal hospitals have paid their interns,why is your own different?.
Why is your hospital the only one the federal government is not responding to?. We need clarification

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

@RavenX09 Imagine the CMD @JAOOKENIYI threatening the interns,because they're asking for what rightfully belong to them. This is so inhumane.
@oauthcofficial . Your interns worked so hard,too hard to be treated this way.

We are not slaves. We deserve our wages.

[Nrs Fam/Medical Virtual Assistant/Medical writer @Niffygee2]

@Derbyomma @Healthintern22 @instablog9ja @yabaleftonline It is so exhausting. It is just so unfair after fulfilling our quota. It has always been one excuse or the other. Till date, we are told that the federal government is yet to implement the budget for our salary, but the staffs are not being owed a dime. Just how?? #payoursalary

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

Medical interns in some federal hospitals like @oauthcofficial in Nigeria are currently owed several months of salaries and arrears, yet are still expected to work full-time under intense pressure.
This is not just unfair, it’s unsafe and inhumane.
Interns deserve dignity.
