OAU Hospital Doctors Threaten Strike


Posted on: Thu 18-07-2013

RESIDENTS doctors at the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital Complex (OAUTHc), Ile-Ife, Osun State, have threatened to embark on indefinite strike if'the management of 
the institution failed to pub- lish the list of newly employed doctors to strengthen the workforce before the end of this month. 
 Addressing a press conference yesterday in Ile-Ife, the 
President of Association of Resident Doctors, OAUTHC Chapter, Dr. Adeola Ajibade, said the union gave the ultimatum due to the refusal of the management to fulfill its promise to employ more 
doctors. 
The doctors who sought for the intervention of the Nigeria Medical Association, (NMA), Medical and Dental Council Association of Nigeria and well meaning Nigerians, noted that Resident Doctors and House Officers of the institution have been on marathon call-duty for weeks while some units currently operate without Registrars or House officers. In a swift reaction, the management promised through the Deputy Director, Corporate Services, Mr. Olu Bello, that the hospital management would not only release the list of successful candi- 
dates but offer them appointment very soon.
