"Management assures all interns that :" Then proceed to lie 😏 "Updates will be communicated regularly" "Interns welfare remains a priority for Oauthc". Then ghost the so called interns you claim to care for. @oauthcofficial Are you trying to gaslight the public too? 🤦🏻‍♀😩

@ruffydfire And they should not release any memo full of lies again!!!!! Ahn ahn I was shocked by the amount of lies in that last memo Talk about they released memo every month to keep us updated That last general memo was the last we saw After they paid 95% of our salary to shut us up

We respectfully seek your intervention and public advocacy concerning the prolonged non-payment of interns working at the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC). For the past eleven months, interns have rendered uninterrupted clinical services at OAUTHC. However, only six months’ salary has been paid, and even that was not in full. To date, our December salary remains unpaid, alongside several months of outstanding arrears. Despite this situation, interns are still being mandated to report for duty. Although an industrial action is currently ongoing, interns have been specifically instructed to continue working without pay. Repeated pleas, formal complaints, and peaceful protests have yielded no meaningful resolution. The consistent explanation given by hospital management is that payment has not been released from Abuja. This explanation, however, is misleading. Unlike other staff whose salaries are federally funded, interns’ remuneration is paid directly by the hospital management, not from Abuja. Notably, other hospital staff have continued to receive their salaries, while interns remain unpaid. This situation has placed immense financial, emotional, and psychological strain on young healthcare professionals who are expected to work under demanding conditions without compensation. It raises serious concerns about labour rights, workplace ethics, and the welfare of medical interns in Nigeria. We humbly appeal to Arise  TV investigate this matter and lend its voice to our plight, so that the appropriate authorities can be held accountable and justice can be served. Thank you for your commitment to truth, accountability, and the protection of vulnerable workers. Mayowa

@ruffydfire It’s really unfair to be treated like this after doing bulk of the work Everyone wants interns, they all need interns but when it’s time to pay, it suddenly becomes a favour they’re doing interns

I wish this was exaggeration. It is not. We wrote letters. We requested meetings. We cried online We were threatened We stopped protesting out of respect. Since then? Silence. Accountability should not require media attention. @oauthcofficial What exactly is our offence?

Pay your interns their outstanding salaries

@Healthintern22 @oauthcofficial @JAOOKENIYI @Fmohnigeria @SaharaReporters Not to even talk of the discrepancy between the money entering the account and the amount on payslip Or how they’re delaying clearance for no particular reason What have interns done to you???? These people work the most in the hospital!!!!

They keep referencing to other federal hospitals in Nigeria,putting the blames on FG. We asked our colleagues in other hospitals and they've been paid. The real question is,why is it only @oauthcofficial FG is owing? We need answers!! @JAOOKENIYI @Fmohnigeria @SaharaReporters

OAU Teaching Hospital Interns Accuse Management Of Withholding Salaries Despite Completing Programme | Sahara Reporters bit.ly/4soDa5E

OAUTHC management @oauthcofficial and the CMD @JAOOKENIYI , Please don’t act as though you haven’t been seeing our posts. You see them. Everyone does. Yet there has been no clear response about our unpaid salaries and arrears. We don’t want this to become bigger than it...

I wonder how these people are at peace with themselves Do they even know this is pure wickedness and cruelty? Do they realise there are people whose lives depend on this money? What exactly are these people trying to prove? @oauthcofficial @JAOOKENIYI

@oauthcofficial and Mr. CMD @JAOOKENIYI Wetin dey sup again? January salary, we no see. And we're in March already. The outstanding arrears still dey there o. Until we start dragging you online again? Pay your interns now! 2025/26 interns deserve better! @Fmohnigeria

Now I owe people who trusted me. People who helped me show up to work every day. And each time they ask, all I can say is: “Please be patient. My hospital hasn’t paid me.” OAUTHC, please pay me my money, so I can pay the people I owe, and breathe again.

Chronicles of an OAUTHC Intern, pt 1 Sometimes I wonder how to explain to people I owe money that I’m not irresponsible, I’m just unpaid. For the first 3 months of my internship, I borrowed money just to survive. Transport to work. Food. Basic daily needs.

Pay our outstanding salaries @oauthcofficial @SaharaReporters

Day 11 of OAUTHC interns demanding payment of all outstanding salaries and arrears. It’s Monday, and interns are still hoping, against all odds, to be paid for the work we have already done, so our story does not end like that of past interns who were owed and quietly forgotten.

OAUTHC interns can relate 😔 Especially 2023-2025 sets @oauthcofficial

Today makes it Day 10 of interns publicly speaking up. It has been over a week since @oauthcofficial interns began voicing concerns about unpaid salaries and accumulated arrears. Within those days, the management has released 2 memos, A thread 👇🏼 (walk with me)

@SaharaReporters @tvcnewsng @aproko_doctor

It’s been a long, exhausting week filled with frustration, anger, and disappointment, for @oauthcofficial interns, all tied to the ongoing saga. Despite everything, we will continue to demand what is rightfully ours: unpaid salaries and outstanding arrears.
