The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors on Friday expressed solidarity with resident doctors at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso, Oyo State, who are currently on strike over outstanding welfare and remuneration issues.
The NARD leadership said Friday marked the seventh day of the industrial action embarked upon by members of the Association of Resident Doctors, LAUTECH Ogbomoso.
NARD warned that failure to resolve the issues could trigger further regional and national industrial action, saying the escalation was unnecessary and could be averted if the outstanding demands of the doctors were implemented.
The development follows a protest by the resident doctors on Wednesday over manpower shortages, unpaid minimum wage arrears, unfulfilled allowance commitments and poor working conditions.
