NARD strike: There should be limit to politicking
SIR: Common knowledge should have taught our so-called leaders that shouting at a crying child without attending to the child’s needs does not solve the problem because peace is not the absence of war but the presence of justice.
NARD is demanding that adequate PPE should be provided to Nigerian doctors and other health workers in order to fight the pandemic. My people say that it is only a tree that will “hear” of its planned death and will still stand. We have seen and heard of the number of deaths recorded in countries with most developed healthcare system let alone Nigeria that ranked 187th by the World Health Organisation among 195 member states on health issues.
Third, NARD is demanding implementation of the agreed hazard allowance for the health workers involved in the fight against the pandemic. We are talking of five thousand naira . Yes, you read it right! Because of N5000, many doctors have contracted dreaded diseases while some have died in the course of handling their patients.
