The workers of Abia state Hospitals Management Board (HMB), a parastal under the state's ministry of health, Umuahia on Monday protested the backlog of salaries numbering about 11 months owed them.

Some of the protesting workers alleged that the government stopped paying them since the month of May, 2016 for undisclosed reason.

The protesters barricaded the busy Aba road, close to the government house, carrying various placards with different inscriptions. The protest caused very slow movement of traffic in the capital city.

Comrade Ejike Patric O. the medical and health workers chairman, of HMB revealed to ABN TV the reason of the protest.

“As you can see from our placards that we have not been paid for barely eleven months, by the end of this September it will be one year. We receive our last salary in September 2018.” Comrade Ejike said.

What a shame!

Teachers and others should join. We need to shut down Abia state. Ikuku has finally pocketed this man.


They called him Ikpeazu (last person) and he's standing at the back. All he knows how to do is drink alcohol until he starts staggering all over the place. Ikpeazu is the only person Yahaya Bello is better than.

Naija We country.
Where do people get money to survive after owing them for 3 months.
With the poor paying scale... We don truly learn how to manage suffering ooo.
If alert no enter on the 24th,I don already dey borrow money not to talk about 2 months...
We're talking about a year here ooo.
All I want to say is that they don't care about us.

Sometimes I wonder if this people see human being when they look at the masses...

Kerosene don finish b dat

today na protest day

And some group of mofo's are collecting bumper pay, budgeting 5.5billion for luxury vehicles, and recieve salaries and bonuses more than, their counterparts in UK, USA and even South Africa. Nigeria is yet to wake up, Monkey dey work, Baboon dey chop.
...There was a country!!!

Shebi una no wan check my signature collect money start your own business... ordinary 11months salary na im una block road?!

i dont take anything Abia state serious.

A state that is extremely stagnant in development, salaries are not being paid, yet Buhari and Apc, Rochas, Tinubu and Lagos is there problem.

If Nnamdi kanu attacks Abia leaders the way he has been attacking Buhari and Rochas, and demands for a better government by now the state would have been better.

I don't take them serious cause i know next 4years they will still vote in same pdp so let them enjoy there voting

This democracy really exposed our true nature. There is really no difference with past military regimes except for freedom of speech.

Please house I need work I live in Ojo area please help a brother thank you.

What does IPOB leader have to say? I thought he is from Abia State. Meanwhile enjoy your Kerosene

While cabals are feasting on funds that are legitimately the workers'.

There's no freedom of speech in Nigeria my brother

PROTEST EVERYWHERE WHY?

gbengress1:
Their Kerosene don finish?

Ask them oh, selling their souls to the devil. Imagine abia poly staff mounting a gigantic billboard in front of the school gate to celebrate a man owing them salary for over one year

Shame on Ikepeazu

11 gini


dis is serious oooo

I don't get understand this gist with state governments owing worker's salary for months. Does it mean the Federal government does not release funds to the state?

YorubaHero12:
The Abia people are currently trying to liberate Kogi from the hands of Yahaya Bello for not paying salaries, we don’t have time for the Abia workers for now.

When we finish installing a new Governor in Kogi, we can then come back to protest against Ikpeazu the Kerosene distributor.

Its no joke, the people are resisting a Gov who rigged himself back to power just like Yahaya Bello has just done at the APC indirect primaries which was abandoned by all his opponents due to thugs invasion if the election venue

Na Tinubu's fault -- ipob youth

I think this is welcome development from abia government.


#Free sowore

Abia State
God rejected state

Just share them some kerosene and they will relax for like another 1-year. Works all the time.

Una governor Don use una salary distribute kerosene before election. So, make una dey patience. He go still pay una.
