*Assault of doctors in NAUTH, Nnewi by JOHESU*

Following the JOHESU strike which started today, the monitoring team of JOHESU invaded the laboratory complex this morning and physically and verbally assaulted a female resident in haematology (Dr(Mrs) Okonkwo Ifeyinwa); they beat her up and smashed her phone. Also a consultant hematologist Dr(Mrs) Ajuba Ifeoma) was verbally assaulted and was called many unspeakable names by the same persons.

ARD has called for emergency OGM tomorrow afternoon. I have equally informed my zonal chairman.
Thank you sir

In assaulted doctor's words:

COPIED FROM ANOTHER BLOG.

Good pm everyone! Thanks for all the support and encouragement from everybody. If we dont help and protect ouselves, who will? What happened today is a glimpse into how much we doctors are hated by our co-workers whom we laugh/chat with, help in various ways without looking back. Maybe by tomorrow, i will give details of what happened. A lot of injustice were meted out on many of our colleagues in pathology today but my crime is that i was accused of taking photos of what they did, so dey hit me, snatched my phone n smashed it, another picked it and started going through it for the pictures but didnt see any obviously. I was held down by 3 other men who twisted my arm ,hurt my ear while i was struggling to be free from their grip, spoilt my earrings in the process n tore my ward coat. Might i add that the CSO n another security man were there n none did anything while johesu members and their interns cheered on. This is only a brief of what happened to me in particular but its much worse than that. Thanks once again. Dr Nwankwo I. G (Reg Haematology)

I hope the mod takes this to the FP.
