Health services continue in Abuja, Lagos hospitals amid medical consultants’ strike

Despite the ongoing strike by members of the Medical and Dental Consultants Association of Nigeria (MDCAN), health services are still being rendered in some hospitals in Abuja, the nation’s capital city, and Lagos State.

While the strike has disrupted elective services in some facilities, findings by PREMIUM TIMES show that emergency and critical care remain operational as hospitals attempt to mitigate the impact of the industrial action.

The association had on Monday declared a seven-day warning strike over alleged government’s failure to take significant steps in addressing its demands.
