The Association of Resident Doctors, Federal Capital Territory (ARD-FCT), on Monday declared a seven-day warning strike to press home demands for urgent reforms in the territory’s healthcare system.
The decision was contained in a communiqué signed by the ARD-FCT President, Dr. George Ebong, and other members of the executive.
The doctors lamented what they described as long-standing systemic failures in the FCT health sector, stressing that resident doctors are under immense strain and often forced to cover multiple departments simultaneously due to manpower shortages.
