Since December 2025, interns at @OAuthc have not been paid salaries, with multiple arrears outstanding.
Many of us rely on this income for basic survival.
This is really unfair
4 months salary outstanding😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[Temi🦅☢ @IamFlexxy]

This is exactly the same thing happening with OAUTHC, Interns from last year; some were done with their terminal leave since January, till now havent been paid what they should, same modus operandi, they should wait for budget implementation. Almost a year after internship...

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.

Day 3 of asking @oauthcofficial to pay 2025/2026 interns…

Since the year began, interns have not received a penny for their duties.

The last partial salary they received was for December.

This is not fair, interns need money to survive.

It is really unfair ooo
The fact that we have to be begging for our hard earned money

@Fmohnigeria

[Goddey Kolawole @GoddeyKolawole]

@Ibadan_boy01 Why deprive us of our money ? @oauthcofficial ...Must we drag you to pay us what is rightfully ours?...Pay us what you owe us..

[Omo Ibadan 💀 @Ibadan_boy01]

:OAUTHC must pay its interns all outstanding salaries and arrears.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

[Omo Ibadan 💀 @Ibadan_boy01]

Day 11 of OAUTHC interns demanding payment of all outstanding salaries and arrears.

It’s Monday, and interns are still hoping, against all odds, to be paid for the work we have already done, so our story does not end like that of past interns who were owed and quietly forgotten.

[Raven🤭 @RavenX09]

Pay our outstanding salaries @oauthcofficial @SaharaReporters

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

We got about 95% of December salary after public pressure.
Now our payslips say we were paid the full amount.
Our bank alerts say something else. Why do our payslips say full payment?
Which one should we believe?
We're exhausted. @JAOOKENIYI Please just do the right thing

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

The CMD told the interns "If you know you can't endure,just leave" He further stated that the next time the interns "Disturb" him,he won't hesitate to replace everyone.We were forced into silence but not anymore. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. @SaharaReporters

[Omo Ibadan 💀 @Ibadan_boy01]

For clarity, this is the only memo released, on January 24th, after sustained online pressure.

This directly contradicts claims that @oauthcofficial management and CMD @JAOOKENIYI releases memos “almost every month” to address the issue.

[Healthinternvoice @Healthintern22]

@oauthcofficial Enough of these lies.
No official meeting was held,and the only memo the interns received was after the public pressure stating that the last personnel funds they received from FG was in October 2025. The management keep twisting the whole narratives.

[Omo Ibadan 💀 @Ibadan_boy01]

The management of @oauthcofficial & CMD @JAOOKENIYI should, in their best interest, clear all outstanding salaries and arrears owed to the current interns to avoid attracting external intervention or tarnishing the prestigious hospital’s image.

This norm of ...
