The Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige has faulted the rejection of a Memorandum of Action by doctors, saying the federal government had substantially met the demands of the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) contrary to their allegation.
He also said the federal government had so far spent N13.3 billion on group life insurance for workers in its employ, including doctors and other health workers in 2020.
But the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has described as untrue the view expressed by Ngige that resident doctors were not mandatorily paid by government during their internship or housemanship training elsewhere in the world, even as it suggested the way out of the crisis in the health sector.
