Pending election divides NMA in Enugu vanguardnews
THE Enugu State Chapter of Nigeria Medical Association, NMA, on Saturday, succumbed to the intractable crisis as a group of the Medical Doctors’ Association emerged from an emergency virtual meeting, claiming it has suspended the State Chairman, Dr Ike Okwesili.
They also alleged that Okwesili unjustly withdrew the rights and privileges of some members of the association, suspended others based on misinformation and was planning to tactically barricade Resident Doctors of Enugu State University Teaching Hospital, ARD ESUT-TH Parklane, from full participation in the state NMA activities.
The embattled State Chairman, Dr Okwesili, however, described his purported suspension as a ruse, alleging that Ugwuonye and co were endangered members of the association under investigation and working to truncate pending NMA state election slated for August 2020. Okwesili said: “The problem is that the Resident Doctors of Parklane hospital will collect their NMA dues and refuse to remit to the association while the Consultants will remit theirs.
