Doctors in public hospitals in Nigeria began Monday a strike to protest against the non-payment of salary arrears and lack of resources in hospitals as the country faces a third wave of coronavirus.
This strike, the latest in a series of medical staff work stoppage, is led by the National Association of Interns (Nard), which represents 40% of doctors in Nigeria.
The union is asking the government to honor its promise to pay compensation to the families of doctors who died while fighting the coronavirus. The association says Nigerian doctors were ill-equipped and under-funded for the job while the facilities in state-run hospitals “are deplorable”.
