GOVERNMENT on Tuesday paid nurses their June salaries minus $2 000 from around $6 000 in May while other civil servants received salaries with a difference ranging from about $490 going upwards.
Military, police and other government personnel were also affected.
The Zimbabwe Nurses Association (ZINA) president Enock Dongo said the June salary has incapacitated nurses from going to work at a time when the country is fighting the coronavirus.
The nurses at the country’s biggest referral hospital, Parirenyatwa the following morning went on a rampage downing their tools and demonstrating against their employer.
