The Association of Resident Doctors at the University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital (UNIMEDTH), Ondo State, has commenced a 14-day warning strike over non-payment salaries to their new members across the past seven months.
“We demand full payment of the arrears of salaries owed to our members and payment of February 2024 palliative to our House Officers,” says the President of the UNIMEDTH ARD, Dr. John Matthew.
“The management should pay the February hazard allowance to our members and urgently address the severe clinical manpower shortage in the institution.
“Our members work everyday. There are no staff due to Japa syndrome.”
Members of the association staged a mini protest on the premises of the facility on Tuesday, and vowed to paralyse activities at the government-owned medical facility if their cries were not heard.
