Abuja Doctors Embark On Three-Day Warning Strike, Over Unjust Sack Of 127 Health Workers
The Association of Resident Doctors in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, is set to begin a three-day warning strike on Tuesday, May 6, 2025.
This was disclosed after the doctors’ emergency congress meeting held on Monday at Asokoro District Hospital, Abuja.
President of FCT ARD, Dr. George Ebong, explained that the strike became necessary following the relief of 127 health workers by the FCT Civil Service Commission last Friday without due diligence.
Ebony described the sack as inhumane and illegal, demanding their immediate reinstatement and onward payment of their April salaries.
He also demanded the immediate resignation of the chairman of FCT-CSC, Emeka Ezeh.
On behalf of the doctors, Dr. Ebong threatened that if their demands are not met by FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and the FCT Administration within three days, they would embark on an indefinite strike and shut down the nation’s capital hospitals.
