The Association of Resident Doctors, ARD, in the Federal Capital Territory has appealed to FCT minister, Nyesom Wike, to meet its demands or face the ‘deadliest shutdown’ of hospitals in 14 days.
The President, Dr George Ebong, issued the warning on Monday during a press conference at Wuse District Hospital, Abuja.
While lauding the minister for his infrastructural projects in Abuja, Ebong stressed that there is an urgent need to also focus on the well-being of doctors who are on the verge of extinction due to economic hardship.
According to him, the minister should concentrate on human development the same way he is doing in the infrastructural sector.
He noted that the FCT minister has 14 days to act on the demands to avert what he described as the deadliest shutdown of hospitals in the nation’s capital.
“First we have to appreciate the minister for his infrastructural development in the FCT since his emergence.
“We want him to know that doctors is an abandoned project. While he fixes the infrastructural abandoned project, we are the human abandoned projects. We believe the minister can deal with the challenge.
