Doctors issue FG 21-day ultimatum, threaten strike

MDCAN made this known in a communique issued at the end of its extraordinary National Executive Council meeting which was held virtually yesterday.

The communique was signed by its President, Doctor Victor Makanjuola, and Secretary-General, Doctor Yemi Raji.

The NEC said it was disappointed by the non-implementation of the jointly agreed upward review of Conmess and the introduction of Accoutrement allowance with the Nigerian Medical Association, as the released circular only captured the percentage increase on the basic salary, as against applying it to both the basic salaries and all allowances except hazard allowance.

According to them, the review will ensure that the clinical lecturers would benefit from the upward review.

The council said the government has failed to resolve the ongoing disputes with the National Association of Residents Doctors and its attendant impacts on access to health care by Nigerians, and the kidnapping of doctors in the country.
