Following the gruesome murder of a medical doctor, Uyi Iluobe at Olivet Clinic last December 29 in Oghara Delta State, the Healthcare Federation of Nigeria has condemned the increase in violence against healthcare workers.

Describing his death as utterly unacceptable and the need for the incessant violence to end, the President of HFN, Dr Pamela Ajayi said “It is impossible to condone these acts of mindless violence against persons who are performing their duty of care”. “They cannot be allowed to get away with it. Doctors and other healthcare personnel must be able to practice their profession without fear of being killed. A hospital should be a place of safety and security, not a battleground,” she added.

According to HFN, it has since developed communications to combat the growing scourge of attacks on healthcare workers. It is a simple message to encourage people to think about how much they do for them.
