The Nigerian Union of Allied Health Professionals has given members across Nigeria two weeks to prepare for a nationwide strike over unpaid allowances. The union, known as NUAHP, has demanded that the Federal Government implement agreed salary adjustments, settle outstanding entitlements and make payments for 19 months of reviewed professional allowances.
