I don’t think we have the money. > I think the problem is it establishes a precedent for the private sector as workers will demand the same thing. He added that the move was a blow to the dedollarisation agenda the government embarked on last year. Meanwhile, nurses have rejected the offer and have since embarked on an industrial action to force the government to pay their salaries in United States dollars. Workers say the proposed increment will not make any difference considering that the country’s economy is inflationary.
