Fashola sacks tricking doctors

Lagos State government on Monday, made real its threat by sacking all the striking medical doctors in the state. Each doctor was served a dismissal letter dated Friday, May 4, 2012 and signed by the CMD of LASUTH, Professor David Oke.
In the letter, the Personnel Management Board, PMB, the disciplinary organ of government which met between 11 and 13 of April, 2012, established against the doctors a case of misconduct and absence from duty without leave or reasonable cause.

The letter read in part:  “The committee therefore recommend your dismissal from service in accordance with the provisions of the civil service rule No 04502, 04507 and 04508. The board has therefore approved your dismissal”

“Therefore you are to convey the possession of the properties of the state government in your custody to the Chief Medical Director CMD”.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of Medical Guild, Dr. Olumuyiwa Odusote, while reacting to the  sack of his members described it as a confirmation of the government’s insensitivity and insincerity to resolve the issue on ground, stressing that the Guild has handed the case to the Nigerian Medical Association, NMA for further action.
It will be recalled that over 1,000 doctors under the aegis of Medical Guild had embarked on an indefinite strike over the alleged failure of Lagos State government to fully implement the earlier agreed Consolidated Medical Salary Structure, CONMESS.
