Fashola sacks striking doctors


Lagos State government on Monday, made real its threat by sacking all the striking medical doctors in the state.


The sack was as a result of doctors refusal to end their strike, which has lasted for over two weeks.

It will be recalled that the doctors had initially embarked on a three-day warning strike last month and resumed work. But they proceeded on an indefinite strike on April 24 after they were summoned to face a disciplinary panel for participating in the three-day warning strike.

The demand of the doctors like in other states of the federation since September 2009 has always been for the Lagos State Government to fully implement the Consolidated Medical Salary Scale for all the doctors in the state.
