The National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) Teaching Hospital, Ogbomosho, have issued a 15-day ultimatum to management, warning of imminent industrial action if unresolved welfare and workplace issues are not addressed.

In a notice dated September 4, 2025, and jointly signed by the Association’s Chairperson, Ojewumi Olutayo, and Secretary, Adedokun Mosunmola, the nurses said the decision followed a resolution of their Congress held on September 3, 2024.

The union stated that despite an earlier Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with management, only two items, including the payment of uniform allowance and regularization of certain cadres of nurses, had been implemented, while other pressing demands were neglected. They expressed concern that continued inaction had exposed members to financial strain, frustration, burnout, and eroded trust in the hospital’s leadership. (The Guardian)
