Medical doctors in Lagos on Sunday declared a three-day warning strike over the state government’s failure to meet their demands.

The doctors under the auspices of Medical Guild are striking over wage disparity between the Federal and Lagos state doctors, Covid-19 Hazard allowances and inducement allowances MOU approved by Federal Government, non-payment of doctors working in isolation centre as well as unceremoniously disengagement of doctors in the isolation centres without recourse to their welfare.

Announcing this at a press conference in Lagos, shortly after a meeting with the state governor, Mr Babatunde Sanwo-Olu, Chairman of the Guild, Mr Oluwajimi Sodipo, said the strike will begin 8 am Monday and end on Thursday 16th, 2020. Doctors in the isolation centres are exempted from the strike.
