The Graduate Unemployed Nurses and Midwives Association (GUNMA) is preparing to launch a major demonstration in response to the government’s prolonged delay in recruiting its members, some of whom have remained jobless for up to five years after completing their training.
Leaders of the association are in discussions with the Regional Police Command to secure approval and finalise arrangements for the protest.
Speaking to Adom News, Women’s President of GUNMA, Sandra Frimpong, said the group is ready to take its concerns directly to key government institutions.
“We are prepared to send our grievances to the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Finance, and even the Jubilee House if necessary,” she stated.
The planned protest highlights growing frustration among thousands of qualified nurses and midwives who feel abandoned despite the critical role they play in Ghana’s healthcare system.
Several members expressed deep disappointment, noting that the lack of employment opportunities has left them stranded for years since graduation.
