Resident Doctors Set To Embark On Nationwide Strike by Dhamiez: 6:20am On Jun 08, 2016
According to the President of the National Association of Resident Doctors of Nigeria (NARD), Dr. Muhammad Askira, the association will start a nationwide strike on Thursday, June 9.

Askira stated this while speaking to newsmen in Kano on Tuesday stating that the decision was taken at the ordinary general meeting of the National Executive Council of the association held in Jos.

He said “16 out of 58 federal tertiary institutions or centres were exempted from the initial centre based strike for the commitment of the Chief Medical Director of the hospitals to implement the Federal Government’s directives.’’

Some CMD'S are just too selfish,pay skipping and relativity as approved by federal government,they wouldn't pay.Rather they prefer reducing pay of doctors and other allowances.
The people that will suffer from this strike are the poor masses

Even if they implement this one they will still request for another one before the end of the year. Doctors are the most selfish people or civil servant in nigeria. Government is doing everything possible to make them happy but they will still not satisfy. They start from level 12 while others start from level 8 apart from lawyers and few that start from 9. They are giving opportunity to run their own private company while others were not given that opportunity. Their salary is up to 300k for a fresh graduate while the core civil servant go home with around 70k. Government sponsor them for study and so on yet they will never satisfy. They should better think and stop all this unnecessary strike.

Ignorance and ill informed individual is worst than illiteracy.
Who told you that fresh graduates are paid 300k.
Who told you Government sponsored their study.
Who told you they start with level 12 in the civil service.
Nigeria doctors are among the least paid doctors in the world thus the massive brain drain of doctors to USA and other countries of the world.Imagine a doctor being giving 5k as harzard allowance at the end of the month in Nigeria.And you expect these doctors to risk their lifes treating terminal diseases like Ebola,lassa fever,Tuberculosis and co.
Go to our government own hospitals and see the poor working conditions doctors work in and how they manage these conditions to give maximum services to their patients.
