Amebley Kwame Junior rekindles the concerns of Rotational Nurses and Midwives Association (RNMA) with regards to financial clearance of rotational nurses and midwives.
One Year After Our Rainy Walk—A Struggle Remembered, A Concern Rekindled
April 16, 2025, marks exactly one year since we, the Rotational Nurses and Midwives Association – RNMA marched through the streets of Accra under heavy rain to demand the payment of our long-overdue allowances. That bold demonstration, followed by persistent press conferences and extensive media engagement, finally compelled the authorities to release our financial clearance and allowances.
While many of us have been paid, it is unfortunate that a few of our colleagues are still yet to receive their monies due to unresolved technical challenges with the Ministry of Health. I urge the Ministry to act swiftly and address these discrepancies.
My greatest concern today, however, is for the current batch of rotational nurses and midwives who have been in active service for over ten months without financial clearance. This growing delay under the new government is deeply disappointing.
Though this campaign is not politically driven, It is important to recall that this very government once stood in solidarity with us during our advocacy. It is, therefore, worrying to witness their silence now that they are in power. Gradually, they are beginning to fail the very people they once supported.
I write this not on behalf of any office or title, but as a former executive who remains deeply concerned about the welfare of the association and its members. Our voices may quiet down, but our memories and expectations remain. Let us not repeat history—let us act.Ministry of Health, Ghana
