Healthcare Disrupted as Strike Hits Abuja Hospitals
The ongoing strike by doctors and nurses has severely affected public health services across Abuja, with many hospitals struggling to operate.
Visits by our reporters revealed that outpatient departments in several public hospitals were shut, and patients were either turned away or had their appointments cancelled and rescheduled.
The strike followed the expiration of a 15-day ultimatum issued to the federal government over unpaid wages, poor working conditions, and delayed implementation of the new minimum wage.
With services disrupted across primary and secondary health facilities, residents are calling for urgent government intervention to restore healthcare access.
