The Nasarawa State Council of Nigeria Medical Association (NMA) has begun a five-day warning strike after the expiration of the three weeks ultimatum issued to the state government.
The NMA Chairman in the state Peter Attah, made the disclosure while briefing newsmen on Wednesday in Lafia.
Attah said the decision to embark on the strike was taken at an emergency meeting of the association on Tuesday.
The chairman said he explained to the congress at previous meeting with the delegation of the government led by the Deputy Governor, Emmanuel Akabe but no serious commitment allegedly came from the government.
He added that after hearing the updates, the congress unanimously agreed that members should withdraw their services in all the state government-owned facilities.
