The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) will from August 1, 2022 declare a nationwide strike over fuel allowance, sources within the association have revealed.
This follows the failure by Government to respect an agreement for an upward review of fuel allowance for doctors every 6 months.
According to sources, all efforts by the doctors to get government deliver on the agreement has been unsuccessful.
The doctors are currently receive GHC6.05 pesewas for fuel per a month. They contend current economic conditions make the fuel allowance woefully inadequate.
