Speaking on TV3 New Day Community Manifesto, the unemployed Nurse a resident of Tamale North Constituency said, “I am a frustrated unemployed nurse, who completed in 2020, up to now I am still in the house, for them to just call me one day that I should bring 5000 cedis for them to give me an appointment which I could not afford. One guy called me that I should bring 5000, he was calling from Savelugu he was a middleman to that so I should bring 5000 cedis for them to post me”.
“I told him I don’t have that money cause I’m not working, I am in the house, so he said if I know somebody who has the money I should link the person to him, I linked one guy he was in my class, now my friend has worked for more than one year now, they are paying the guy he paid 5000 plus and they posted him”, he added.
The unemployed Nurses further stated that the issue is very heartening and very painful to talk about.
