The Coalition of Unpaid Nurses and Midwives in Ghana is calling on all members to participate in a significant demonstration scheduled for October 2nd and 3rd, 2025, at the Afua Sutherland Children’s Park in Accra. This event aims to unite healthcare professionals in a collective demand for fair compensation and recognition of their dedicated service to the nation.
The coalition, which represents thousands of nurses and midwives across the country, has expressed growing frustration over ongoing issues related to unpaid salaries and inadequate remuneration. As frontline workers during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, these professionals have played an essential role in safeguarding public health, yet many continue to face financial hardships due to delayed payments.
In a statement released by the coalition, members emphasized the importance of solidarity and collective action. “Your presence is crucial as we stand together to demand what is rightfully ours,” they urged fellow members. “Let’s show unity, strength, and commitment. Together, our voices will be heard.”
The coalition is encouraging all members to share the demonstration notice and accompanying flyer widely on social media platforms and with colleagues to amplify their message. The more voices that join this movement, the stronger their call for justice will resonate within the corridors of power.
The demonstration comes at a time when healthcare professionals are increasingly advocating for better working conditions and fair treatment from the government. The Coalition of Unpaid Nurses and Midwives is determined to ensure that their concerns are addressed by key stakeholders, including the Ministry of Health, the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Ghana, and other relevant authorities.
As the date approaches, the coalition is mobilizing support from various groups and organizations within the healthcare sector and beyond. They are hopeful that this demonstration will draw attention to their plight and lead to meaningful dialogue with policymakers regarding fair compensation for nurses and midwives.
The coalition’s efforts underscore the broader challenges faced by healthcare workers in Ghana, where many continue to advocate for their rights amid economic difficulties. With their collective strength, the Coalition of Unpaid Nurses and Midwives aims to make a powerful statement that cannot be ignored.
