The Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Folorunso Adewole, has directed the Medical Directors and Chief Medical Directors of Federal Government-owned Hospitals to ensure that Consultants and National Youth Service Corps Doctors as well as Doctors on Internship are on duty to provide health services at the hospitals in order to ensure there is no break in healthcare services to our people.
Adewole assured all Nigerians that the Federal Government Health Facilities will be open and render services to the people while the government continues to dialogue with the resident doctors to return to work. Arrangements are also on to make use of Armed forces, Police and Federal Road Safety Health Facilities.
The Health Minister expressed optimism that the problem will be resolved soon.
