Activities at the Federal Ministry of Health headquarters was disrupted yesterday as workers in the ministry protested.
Minister of Health Prof. Adewole Isaac was denied access into the premises while the protest lasted.
Not even the intervention of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Winifred Oyo-Ita, was able to calm the nerves of protesting workers who were calling for the redeployment of the Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Dr Amina Shamaki, over allegation of incompetence and high-handedness.
Yesterday’s protest was the second against Dr. Shamaki who had to go into hiding when the security around her could not stop the rampaging workers.
The protest was led by Hassan Habba, who went though floors of the ministry with a bell calling out workers.
