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.

Once in a while you come across things that actually makes you doubt the mental capacity of some people, this is one of those times.
This is very shameful!
@Ennie_1@mobolajifaniran As how ? I’ve actually seen an auxiliary nurse perform a C-section and a myomectomy without any supervision from a doctor. Iyen wa nko
@iAmElvis0 @oyeolsakin11538@NwachukwuCosmas@haariyor@iyekefejiymg This Oando reference is very wrong, Oando wasn't 50 Kobo in 2010.
Stop quoting wrong info with confidence.
Your other points are valid though, solid equities tend to outperform MMF over long timeframe.
Nigerians seem to be getting more kidney disease. @AfroVII asked why this was and the response was agbo, bleaching cream etc. What many don't know is that many Nigerians carry a gene called APOL1 that increases their risk of kidney disease. Learn more: https://t.co/PBUkWdpBma
