The Federal Teaching Hospital in Gombe, Gombe State, has banned its employees from engaging in cryptocurrency mining during working hours.
This directive was outlined in a widely circulated memo dated September 18, 2024, and signed by the Deputy Director of Administration, Adamu Tela.
A copy of the memo was accessed by our reporter on Friday.
Our reporter notes that cryptocurrency has become a popular trend among people of all ages today.
Not Coin, Dawg is featured among the Telegram mining opportunities that have brought wealth to Nigerians.
The statement partially stated, “I am directed to caution all members of staff to desist from mining and all forms of related crypto trading activities while working.
“The warning became necessary due to a series of complaints received from patients and their relatives on how the trading activities distract staff members from performing their primary assignment while at their duty post.”
