Cross River Government Condemns Strike Action Embarked by NMA

In a related development, Cross River State government has condemned the strike embarked upon by the Nigerian Medical Association over the abduction of two of its members in the state.

A statement issued by the Special Adviser, Media and Publicity, to the Governor, Christian Ita, described the strike as unfortunate, regrettable and ill-advised.

The statement noted that the response of the government since the unfortunate abduction had been strong, robust and total.

It added that the government was, therefore, undeserving of the reaction of the medical association.
