NMA raises concern over Resident doctors’ strike in Lagos

The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has expressed concern over the three-day warning strike by resident doctors at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH). The NMA warned of a broader healthcare crisis if demands are not met, including the construction of modernized quarters, revised professional allowances, and improved security. Additionally, a 21-day ultimatum issued by the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) since June 6, 2026, threatens an indefinite strike if welfare issues remain unresolved.
