The health sector in Nigeria has been threatened by an industrial strike action due to some anomalies in the system.

The National Association of Resident Doctors, NARD, Monday, vowed
to shut down the health sector with effect from January 2, 2017, should
the Federal Government fail to implement all the outstanding agreements
with the union, according to Dailypost.
It described the planned industrial action as painful but the last option, having exhausted all windows of dialogue.
President of NARD, Dr. Onyebuchi John Ugochukwu, who addressed a
press briefing in Enugu equally directed members to start putting on
“black ward gown” as a sign of death of health facilities in the
country.
Ugochukwu, who was flanked by the association’s national treasurer
and public relations officer, Dr. Ugwuoke Aloy Ifedinso and Dr. Asinobi
Ugoeze chided the Federal Ministry of health for allowing the sector to
deteriorate into a very sorry and unmanageable state.
He, therefore, declared that: “all agreements of the July 14th
2016 mediation meeting with the Honourable Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara must be implemented immediately.
“The Ministry of health should be responsible enough to honour such high level agreement reached by all the parties.
“If they fail to do so, we are directing all our members to
proceed on indefinite action with effect from January 2, 2016. We have
already notified all the appropriate bodies on the ultimatum which will
expire on the said day.”
In a 15-point resolution, which was a fallout of the NARD’s
National Executive Council Meeting held in Abuja, he called on the
Federal Government to “as a matter of urgency, institute mechanisms to
stem the rot in the health sector and ensure that quality healthcare is
accessible to all Nigerians.”
He decried the poor budgetary allocation to the health ministry,
noting that adequate provision and planning should be made for both
manpower and infrastructural development in subsequent budgets.
