Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), Lagos State, has ordered doctors in federal public hospitals to go on solidarity strike. The NMA held an emergency congress, where they agreed to commence an indefinite strike to support their counterparts in the state and protest the discriminatory application of the state's 'no work, no pay' policy to members of the Medical Guild in the period between April/May 2012 and September 2014."
The strike order which was placed on notice board was signed by the branch chairman and secretary of NMA, Drs. Temitope Ojo and Batunde Saheed, respectively.
The notice of strike stated: "The NMA Lagos will commence the indefinite strike from Monday, March 23, with the provision of emergency service following the failure of the Lagos State Government to resolve the demands of the Medical Guild."
