Just In : FG Okays Recruitment Of 200 Doctors, Nurses in Ogun State
The Federal Government has approved the recruitment of 200 medical and clinical personnel for the Federal Medical Centre in Idi-Aba, Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The move is part of the government’s efforts to replace health workers who have recently migrated to foreign countries from the FMC in Abeokuta.
The FMC Medical Director received the approval to hire new workers in a letter from the office of the Head of Service of the Federation.
The letter marked, HCSF/SPSO/ODD/E&WP/650361, was in response to a request by the medical center to employ more staff, and it was titled, ‘RE: Application For A Waiver To Employ Staff At Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta’.
“I am directed to refer to your letter ref. no. SMH.587/S.26/T/73 dated 31st August 2023 on the above subject, and convey the approval of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation for a waiver to enable Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta, to fill a total of Two Hundred (200), positions,” the letter partly read.
The FMC was granted a waiver to employ 100 medical personnel on the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure, as well as 50 nursing officers and 50 nursing superintendents on the Consolidated Health Salary Structure.
This approval, it was said, “is based on and limited to the 2023 Approved Establishment position of the Centre which covers the proposed recruitment.”
