Efforts to end the ongoing nurses' strike have intensified as the Ministry of Health holds a critical closed-door meeting with the leadership of the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) and other stakeholders.

The outcome of this discussion is expected to determine whether the industrial action will be called off or continue in the coming days.

But speaking to Channel One News on Monday, June 9, the Public Relations Officer for the Ministry, Tony Goodman, expressed optimism, stating that the ministry is hopeful the nurses will accept the terms under discussion and agree to end the strike. "This meeting is on what the minister has been advocating for, the past few days, that is, for us to come back to the table for discussion.

Thankfully, the leaders of the association agreed to the plea and are here. "We hope that by the time we finish this meeting, there will be a fruitful resolution for them to call off the strike.
