AWKA—DOCTORS in the employ of Anambra State government yesterday called off their 13 months old strike.

The action was suspended when it apparently became obvious that the state government was not ready to shift ground on the 60 percent salary increase it offered the doctors when the strike began last year.

The Medical Association, NMA, in the state, headed by Dr. Emmanuel Ekwesianya and the state government team, headed by Secretary to the State Government, Chief Paul Odenigbo, signed the agreement in Awka calling off the strike.

The doctors embarked on the strike over the state government’s alleged refusal to implement the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure, CONMESS, approved for doctors working in government-owned hospitals in the country.


Ekwesianya said despite efforts to make government shift ground, it remained rigid on the 60 percent increase it offered to pay the doctors when negotiations began.

He said the doctors decided to call off the strike in the interest of the patients, adding that it was not good for the doctors to remain as rigid as government on the issue as people were suffering.


“We are serving the people and not government and we observe that it is the people that have continued to suffer over the past 13 months the doctors have been on strike,” he said.

The NMA chairman explained that a technical committee, headed by Professor O.O, Mbonu, had been set up to work out ways of smooth practice in the hospitals and urged all the striking doctors to go back to work immediately.


Vanguard recalls that negotiations between the doctors and government broke down as the two parties could not agree on the issue.

While government offered to pay 60 percent increase, in view of what it attributed to its poor resources, the NMA insisted that the state was capable of paying the new pay structure

When is Tinubu next medical trip abroad? A man who has been in charge of Lagos economy and politics since 1999 couldn’t build a world class hospital for himself and his “YORUBA PEOPLE” but goes abroad to treat himself while the poor in Makoko die of cholera and malaria. Wake up!

A govt that offers to pay 60% salary increment to doctors is the best and listening one, but the doctors were adamant because the strike was politically motivated sponsored by obasanjo himself in order to remove Mr.prudent manager from office.

Very intolerance in nature
They can go to any lent to castigate other leaders from other regions but if you try to counter or oppose their point of views even with fact they will show and prove themselves as extremist that can not be trust with power.



IBO are intolerance and extremist that can be trust with power.

They prefer professional doctors hence why they travel abroad for medical checkup.

Peter Obi has a sweet mouth that can only cajole illiterates.


He tells you how China invested in their country while he is stashing money in Panama

He went to Egypt to fool his lots about power generation, forgetting that enlightened people like myself know that power generation is not even the basics of our epileptic power supply. Even if Nigeria generates 100,000GW, their are no transmission and distribution lines to deliver to consumers.

Only fools he can use those rhetoric's to cajole!

Someone that rule for 8 years without a monumental achievement, and when we talk, they tell us he saved money. Do I need to be educating Obi on Nairaland that money saved in the bank depreciates? Seems dude is a learner when it comes to investment and why he lost $7,000,000 of public funds in a bad investment, and trying to put blame on the Naira! Didn't he factor that in before making investment decision's?

Peter Obi is a pure fraud!

One Osibanjo mentioned launching first all black astronauts to the space during the primaries campaign.

Little did he know that those supposed astronauts are now yahoo boys, POS attendants, fulltime bet 9ja customers, prostitutes and some pregnants. grin

Even vow to continue from where Buhari stopped. grin

Now, the so called winner of APC primaries (Tinubu) packaged the poorest leader for us.

The truth is Obi never bargained such with them probably because he wasn't on seat when such agreement was reached and he never entered into any written or verbal agreement with them. And if you know the salary of doctors, 60 percent increase was unrealistic. Moreso be aware that Obi later cleared all their enumerations and even paid them the ones they didn't work for while they were on strike! Go and verify!
