Ekiti State Government has called on doctors under the aegis of National Association of Government General Medical and Dental Practitioners to suspend its industrial action in the interest of the masses.
The doctors on June 30 withdrew their services, after a 28- day ultimatum in protest against alleged wage disparity, unpaid backlog of allowances, among other matters. Olumilua said the state has over 300 doctors on its payroll, contrary to the frightening situation painted by the striking doctors.“It is widely acknowledged that most developing nations and sub- nationals are experiencing the shortage of doctors in the health sector, including Ekiti State.“It is however important to clarify that there are adequate doctors in both public and private sectors in Ekiti State to meet the healthcare needs of its residents.
