FG, striking Doctors sign fresh agreement

We may call off strike on Saturday — NARD

The Nigeria Association of Resident Doctors has vowed to continue its ongoing strike until the federal and state governments accede to its demands.

NARD made its position known in a communiqué issued at the end of a virtual extraordinary National Executive Council meeting signed by Dr, Uyilawa Okhuaihesuyi, its President, on Thursday in Abuja.

The association said that the NEC had unanimously voted that the ongoing strike that started on April 1 would continue.

The communique said: “The strike will last until the federal and state governments meet our demands.

“We want to use this medium to reiterate our commitment to the smooth running of all tertiary institutions in the country, and the provision of specialised healthcare to all Nigerians.

“However, we need to first of all care for our own health and welfare in order to give standard care to our patients, which is in line with the physician’s oath.”

NARD claimed the NEC had observed that in spite of efforts by the National Officers Committee to ensure that the Federal Government did the needful to prevent the strike, it failed to do so.

It noted that NARD had given two months ultimatum before going on the strike when it became apparent that the Ministry of Health was not interested in any form of settlement to avert the industrial action.

It expressed disappointment over the way and manner the government was passing “spurious” information to the public.

The resident doctors also faulted the government for not holding a reconciliatory meeting at the expiration of the ultimatum on March 31.

They said: “`Without prejudice to labour laws and other extant laws of the land, the industrial action had already begun before the MOA was signed, and as such, not tenable.”
