The National Association of Resident Doctors has issued two weeks ultimatum to the federal government to execute the agreements on their demands or risk industrial action.
This was revealed in a communiqué released by the resident doctors on Saturday April 29 at the conclusion of their Extraordinary National Executive Council meeting which took place in Abeokuta, the capital of Ogun State.
The meeting addressed issues of importance to the association members, especially issues concerning their welfare and remuneration.
The resident doctors who did a meeting from Thursday April 27 to Saturday April 29 demanded increase in the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure to the tune of 200 per cent of the current gross salary of doctors in addition to the new allowances.
Their demands were spelt out in a letter to the Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire on July 7, 2022, on the review of CONMESS.
