 Kaduna Health Workers Celebrate As Gov. Uba Sani Approves New Pay Structure


Health workers across Kaduna State erupted in joy on Wednesday after Governor Uba Sani approved the implementation of the 2024 Consolidated Health Salary Structure (CONHESS) and hazard allowances, effective September 2025.


The announcement was made during a press briefing in Kaduna by the Chairman of the National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives (NANNM), Kaduna chapter, Ishaku Yakubu.


Yakubu hailed the decision as “long overdue,” describing it as a major win for the state’s health professionals who, he noted, had endured years of neglect under past administrations.


“This is highly commendable and timely. We’ve been pressing for this for over three years, even embarking on warning and indefinite strikes in the past to demand its implementation,” he said.


He explained that the approval signals a fresh chapter for nurses, midwives, and other health professionals, stressing that it would boost morale and improve service delivery across public hospitals.


Over the years, Kaduna health workers have staged several protests and strikes over poor welfare conditions, unpaid benefits, and inadequate hazard pay. During the COVID-19 pandemic, frontline staff repeatedly accused the state of abandoning them despite the risks they faced.


The new salary structure is seen as a policy shift from years of strained relations between the state government and its health sector workforce. 


Previous administrations were often at loggerheads with unions, with disputes leading to mass sackings and prolonged strikes.


By implementing the CONHESS package and allowances, the Sani administration is being credited with restoring confidence among health workers, addressing brain drain, and strengthening healthcare delivery in the state.
