The Joint Health Sector Union (JOHESU) has put the blame for their strike action on the doorstep of the Nigeria Medical Association (NMA) for its dominance above others in the health sector.
The Sokoto State chairman of the union, Abubakar Shehu, made the claim in an interview with our correspondent in Sokoto.
He cited a case where the Minister of Health, all Chief Medical Director of hospitals, and even Commissioner of Health at state levels are all medical doctors.
Shehu said his union only clamoured for equity and fairness to all in the health sector, stating that “We are not agitating in taking the doctor’s salaries, but we want our worth to be accorded to us because we are also professionals.”
