‘We’re disappointed’ — NMA asks FG to rethink ‘no work, no pay’ policy against striking doctors | TheCable
The federal capital territory chapter of the Nigeria Medical Association has urged the federal government to reconsider its “no work, no pay” policy against medical workers.
Ugwuanyi noted that if the government goes on with the plan, it will further heighten the dearth of doctors in the country.He said at the moment, Nigeria has less than 25,000 registered practising doctors, adding that government must find a way to encourage doctors to stay in the country. “The reason why most of us are dressed in black is not far fetched, we are in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in the NMA Lagos state branch,” he said.“As you are aware in the last one week, the media space has been filled with the news of a sad development, a young doctor, a house officer on duty, was trapped in a lift and she collapsed and died.
