Patients receiving treatment at the Federal Teaching Hospital, Ido-Ekiti are currently groaning as a result of the strike embarked upon by health workers

During a visit to the hospital in Ido-Ekiti, people were seen moving their sick relatives out of the facility.

Speaking with newsmen, Imam Abdulazeez Momu, who brought his son for treatment from, Ikare, Ondo State, expressed disappointment that his son, who was in pain, could not get the medical attention he came for. In an interview, the chairman of the Ekiti State chapter of JOHESU, Mr Femi Ajoloko, who had visited the hospital to ensure compliance, said the strike was a directive from the national body of the union.

Vowing that the strike would not be called off until government acceded to their demands, he further noted that their counterparts in state hospitals would soon join the strike.
