MP pleads to find solution for Yei Civic Hospital
Saturday, 19 May 2012 08:25 Lagu Francis Health >>> . A Member of Parliament in the National Legislative Assembly (NLA) has urged health authorities and organizations in the country to rescue, what he named "the pathetic situation of Yei River County Civic Hospital". Paul Yuwani Bonju's appeal comes after members of NLA recently visited the county to assess the conditions of the hospital. Speaking to Radio Miraya on Saturday, Bonju said that roofs of the buildings have already rusted and the staff are under paid. "The staff are not receiving their salary regularly. It appears they did not receive their April salary. 250 (pounds a month) for somebody to continue serving in a humanitarian kind of work for 10-15 years was really a problem," he lamented. He added: "Besides these irregular salaries, same allowances are not considered. They are supposed to have infection, house and transport allowances which is (sic) not paid to them". According to Bonju, there is a shortage of drugs in the hospital and staff complained of lack of promotion after serving for a long time. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
