LUTH’s Patients Appeal to FG, Striking Doctors to End Strike

Some of the patients at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), Idi-Araba, Lagos, on Friday said that the warning strike embarked upon by the hospital’s resident doctors had begun to take its toll on them. They told reporters from the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) who visited the hospital.

The reporters also observed that only few consultants, nurses, pharmacists, laboratory technicians and cleaners were at their duty posts as the strike entered the third day. Those patients that spoke to NAN appealed to both the Federal Government and the doctors to call off the strike in the interests of the public.
