                                     National President of Nigeria Union of Allied Health Professionals
Health workers in the country will begin an indefinite strike today, Thursday, 16th of October, over sundry issues, including the unresolved leadership crisis in the health sector, non-commencement of residency trainingprogramme for health professionals, non-implementation of new call duty allowance and non-payment of arrears.

The National President of Nigeria Union of Allied Health Professionals, Felix Faniran, who announced the commencement of the strike yesterday in Ibadan accused the presidency and Minister of Health as being behind the crisis in the health sector, saying the effect of the strike should be blamed on government that ignored allavenues to avert it.
