National Association Of Resident Doctors to Embark On A Three- day Strike On Wednesday



Tough times ahead for Nigeria as the National Association of Resident Doctors has ordered its members nationwide to embark on a three-day warning strike from Wednesday.
NARD said Wednesday’s strike was to protest against the poor funding of the residency training of its members by the Federal Government.
The 21-day ultimatum given to the Federal Government by NARD expired on June 18, 2013.
NARD National President, Dr. Ismail Lawal, had about two weeks ago during a news conference at the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital, Sagamu warned that the resident doctors across the country might embark on strike any moment after the 21-day ultimatum expired.
Lawal, who had expressed dismay at the inadequate funding of the residency training programme in the 2013 budget, had also said the union had given enough opportunity to the government to address the lapses.
He said, “NARD has directed her members to embark on a three-day warning strike commencing from Wednesday June 26, 2013 to show our dissatisfaction at the unbecoming attitude of the Federal Government to the issue of residency training funding and the failure to yield to our demand for the supplementary budget for the training.”
