The Enugu State chapter of the Nigerian Medical Association says it will provide services in the state hospitals despite the ongoing strike by the Joint Health Workers Staff Union. The state NMA chairman, Dr. Cajetan Onyedum, gave the assurance on Wednesday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Enugu. He said that the members of the association have been mobilised to provide reasonable level of services at the affected hospitals. He said that medical workers had always filled the gap created by the striking workers each time they embarked on such. “However, when this type of strike occurs, we try to cover up in order to maintain reasonable level of service delivery,” he said.
