Doctors set to embark on indefinite strike

Chairman of the association, Dr Kyrian Duruewuru, announced the plan during an interaction with newsmen in Owerri on Wednesday.

He said the association had on April 4, issued a 14-day ultimatum to the State Government following unsuccessful negotiations on the remuneration of doctors and other issues. Others are immediate payment of 30 per cent balance of the monthly salary of doctors which had been removed for 40 months, payment of three months salary arrears owed doctors in the state employ and improvement of infrastructure in state-owned health institutions.

“There is huge decay of infrastructure leading to a setback in accreditation of departments in IMSUTH where resident doctors are trained.
