Gombe hospital bars staff from mining during working hours
The management of the Federal Teaching Hospital Gombe (FTH) has banned employees from engaging in cryptocurrency mining during working hours. According to the management, this growing trend has been a distraction, preventing staff from properly attending to patients.
In an internal memo, the hospital emphasized that while employees are free to pursue other activities outside of work hours, their primary focus during duty should be patient care.
The memo further noted that SERVICOM, ACTU, and security personnel have been deployed to monitor and enforce adherence to this directive. Recently, many Nigerians have been spending hours tapping their phones in an effort to mine cryptocurrency.
