In a major development, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the Vice President and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has announced that the outstanding nursing trainee allowances for 2024 will be released this Thursday, May 16, 2024.

The allowances, which were restored by the Akufo-Addo government after being cancelled by the previous government, have been stalled for months.

At a meeting with the youth in Nalerigu, North East Region, Dr. Bawumia made the announcement to cheers from the crowd.

He revealed that the Minister of Finance has sent him a message confirming that the Controller and Accountant General will transfer 177 million Ghana Cedis to the Ministry of Health, which will then pay out the allowances to the nursing trainees.

“The Minister of Finance has sent me a message which says that on Thursday, the Controller and Accountant General is going to transfer 177 million Ghana Cedis to the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Health will transfer it to the Nursing trainees,” he said.

“So I believe that, in shaa Allah, by next week, all of you should be receiving the  nursing  trainee allowances, and they will be in your accounts”, he stressed.

The announcement was met with jubilation from the nurses in attendance, who chanted Dr. Bawumia’s name in appreciation.
