Members of the Association of resident doctors at the university of medical sciences teaching hospital in Ondo state have commenced a 14-day warning strike.
President of the resident doctors, John Matthew emphasized that part of the reasons for the warning strike include non-payment of palliative to house officers since February, failure to disburse the February hazard allowance despite assurances from the state government to settle two months, shortage of staff resulting from the resignation of doctors from the hospital among others.
While staging a peaceful protest at the hospital premises, the doctors vowed to halt activities until their concerns are addressed by the government.
