The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has said it will embark on a nationwide indefinite strike to press home its demands if government fail to adhere to previous agreements reached with it.

It also gave the government a 14-day ultimatum to show commitment in meeting its demands or risk overhauling medical services across the country.

Addressing journalists in Abuja, NMA President, Dr. Lawrence Obembe, warned against the proliferation of directorates in hospitals, arguing that it would set a wrong trend in the administration of hospitals in the country.
