The Association of Resident Doctors of the University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital in Ondo State has threatened to down tools over unpaid salary.
The doctors, who temporarily suspended their services, organised a mini-protest on the premises of the University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital, Akure, on Friday against the non-payment of their entitlements.
The Chairman of the Media Committee of the association, Dr Taiwo Olagbe, said they had not received salary since January. “In order to avert a repeat of what happened in January, we have had wide consultations in form of letters and meetings to and with both our management and government representatives to hear our peculiar situation and do the needful but all to no avail.
The protesters resolved that before they could return to work the state government must ensure full payment of their salary arrears, including “our January salary shortfall”.
