Civic Group Threatens To Disrupt Nurses' Training Over 'Unfair' Recruitment

Civic groups in Southern Zimbabwe, under the banner Matabeleland Collective (MC), have warned the government that they will disrupt the training of recently recruited nurses at Mpilo Central Hospital and United Bulawayo Hospitals (UBH) if reports of unfair recruitment of student nurses are not addressed.

There was an outcry in Bulawayo and the Matabeleland provinces with reports that the majority of student nurses selected for the hospitals in Bulawayo were from Mashonaland. The MC said in a statement.

MC pledges to shut down some of these training centres if the government does not intervene to reverse these unfair practices from these nursing training institutions.

MC also urges the government to immediately implement devolution of power in order to curb these unfair structural practices that favour other regions over the other.

Reports indicate that at Mpilo, 20 out of the 24 trainee nurses recruited last week were not from Matabeleland.
