The Minister of State for Health, Dr Olorunnimbe Mamora have said that he was confident that chief medical directors in several states would be able to make necessary adjustments.
Mamora said he was confident that the strike would not be prolonged because meetings were still being held between the Federal Government and the leadership of NARD.
He said “I do not envisage a situation where the strike will continue because we are making every effort to resolve the impasse. I’m hoping we will continue with dialogue and also ensure we can resolve the issues with NARD because they form a major workforce within the system in terms of clinical work. So, it is in the interest of the country to have these things sorted out soon. I’m aware that the various CMDs are also putting in place contingency arrangements,”
