Akwa Ibom Doctors Set to Strike! UNIUYO Given 21 Days to Act

Akwa ibom

The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), Akwa Ibom State chapter, has issued a 21-day ultimatum to the management of the University of Uyo (UNIUYO) over unresolved issues concerning doctors’ salaries and welfare.

Speaking at a press briefing in Uyo on Wednesday, NMA Chairman, Dr. Aniekan Peter, said the decision to embark on strike followed failed negotiations with the university management despite multiple efforts.

In a communique signed by Dr. Peter and Assistant Secretary, Dr. Unyime Ndoh, the association expressed frustration over:
1. The non-migration of medical lecturers to the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS), despite approval by the UNIUYO Governing Council.
2. Unpaid salary arrears since 2016, unlike other universities that have already implemented the migration.
3.  The alarming rate of brain drain, as many affected doctors have left Nigeria for the US, Canada, the UK, and Saudi Arabia in search of better conditions.

The NMA accused the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Nyaudoh Ndaeyo’s administration, of being insensitive to the welfare of medical practitioners and failing to prioritize healthcare services.

The NMA warned that if their demands are not met within 21 days, doctors in the state could withdraw their services, potentially crippling medical education and healthcare delivery.

The ball is now in UNIUYO’s court to prevent an impending strike that could worsen Nigeria’s healthcare crisis.
