Doctors Begin Strike Action In Ondo State

Resident Medical Doctors working with hospitals owned by the Ondo State government on Monday, started delivering skeletal services in protest of several months of unpaid salaries.

The doctors also threatened to embark on indefinite strike action from next Monday if the government fails to attend to their demands.

Specifically, the medical practitioners accused the government of owing them four months unpaid salaries

Spokesman of the aggrieved doctors, Dr Taiwo Olagbe, said it was wrong for other workers under health management board to receive regular salaries while resident doctors were made to suffer.

He, therefore, appealed to the government to address their situation and urged well-meaning Nigerians to also prevail on the government to pay their dues.
