Health workers stop planned strike over Ocholi’s death

Wednesday March 9, 2016

Members of the Joint Health Workers Union (JOHESU), have shelved their planned strike, initially scheduled to commence on Thursday March 10th, as a mark of respect for the late Minister of State for Labor, James Ocholi, who died in a fatal accident alongside his wife and son on Sunday March 6th.

 President of the Union, Biobelemoye Josiah, made this known to newsmen today March 9th

According to him, the suspension of the proposed strike action is to enable the workers mourn late James Ocholi who was until his death the Chairman of a Negotiation Committee set up by the Ministry of Labor to address the issues raised by the health workers union in their notice of the proposed strike sent to the ministry.
