One of the resolutions reached at the Emergency Congress of the medical doctors in the employment of the Lagos State Government was to issue an ultimatum that they will embark on a 3-day warning strike on July 13th. The 2 weeks ultimatum commences today and at its expiration, if 70% of the requests they have made are not met they will embark on the 3-day strike. 
In his statement on Monday, the Chairman of the medical doctors under the umbrella of the Medical Guild, Dr. Oluwajimi Sodipo, said the issues include; salary disparity, shortage of doctors, COVID-19 response and Medical Residency Training Act, among others.

He said: “At the end of the Emergency Congress held on Saturday, we have resolved that the state government should be given two weeks more ultimatum, starting from Monday, June 29, to meet at least 70 percent of the demands or we will embark on a three-day warning strike.

“COVID-19 response issue that affects our members are still there and non-inclusion of the Medical Guild in the activities; there is the issue of the Lagos State minimum wage, salary disparity between the federal government and Lagos State Government doctors, memorandum of understanding between the federal government and healthcare workers unions on COVID-19 allowances; shortage of doctors and the Medical Residency Training Act, among others.”

“If these demands are not met by then, an emergency representative council meeting should be held for immediate activation of Medical Guild three days warning strike,” he said.
