Lagos General Hospital: NMA Embarks On Indefinite Strike Over Dead Doctor
The Lagos Chapter of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), has directed all the doctors working in the three government hospitals on Lagos Island to begin an indefinite strike.
The strike order was given as a result of the death of it’s member, Dr. Vwaere Diaso.
Diaso died on Monday, August 1, in an elevator accident at General Hospital, Odan in Lagos State.
According to her colleagues and friend, the elevator had been bad for a while and the hospital management failed to repair it despite several complaints.
In reaction to the incident, the NMA Lagos chapter declared a five-day mourning period in the state and asked doctors in the other government-owned hospitals to scale down activities as a mark of respect for the dead colleague.
The hospitals to embark on the indefinite strike are the General Hospital, Odan, Lagos; Lagos Island Maternity Hospital, Lagos, and the Massey Street Children’s Hospital, Lagos.
Meanwhile, House doctors where the unfortunate incident happened have staged a protest over her death and are demanding that justice must be served.
