Nigerian Doctors March Against Abduction Of Colleague Kidnapped Over 2 Weeks Ago In Cross River, Vow Daily ProtestsThe doctors who left their hospitals and took to the streets defied heavy rain and decried that doctors in the state were no longer safe.
The doctors, who donned white coats marched through major streets in Calabar carrying placards with inscriptions such as: “Set Cross River free from the stranglehold of kidnappers” and “Free all persons held captive by kidnappers.” In a video of the protest seen by SaharaReporters, Dr Archibong is seen telling the deputy governor, Odey that doctors in the state were no longer safe.
Addressing the protesting doctors, the deputy governor assured them that the government was working on the issue, disclosing that security agencies especially the police, three days ago raided some spots where they felt she was being held but unfortunately, she was not there. "Yesterday, an arrest was made but it is not every arrest we make public because it will make the job of the security agencies more difficult. The doctor is someone I know very well and as a government, we will do everything within our power to bring her back. I will use this opportunity to charge the security agencies to do all they can do within their power to secure the release of the doctor.
