The Director, Strategic Engagement, Abia State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party Campaign Council, Chief John Okiyi Kalu, yesterday, called on the people of the state to demand a factual response from the Nigerian Medical Association on the lingering dispute between doctors and the state government.
Okiyi-Kalu urged citizens to eschew all forms of political gimmicks and question some abnormalities that are causing the conflict in the Abia health sector. Okiyi-Kalu said that the root of the current wage management challenge in HMB and ABSUTH is traceable to 2015, disclosing that he witnessed a meeting between Governor Okezie Ikpeazu, who was new in office, the management and union leaders from ABSUTH, at the Government House, in Umuahia.
“Governor Okezie Ikpeazu went ahead to pay them 11 months salary arrears in one tranche that same year. For those medical doctors earning N500,000 per month, they received an alert of N5, 500,000.00 in one day.
