The National Association of Resident Doctors, NARD, has given the Federal Government 14 days to address their welfare and other demands or risk a strike.
The doctors issued the ultimatum after their 46th Annual General Meeting held in Calabar, Cross River State.
NARD President, Dr Emmanuel Ogar, who read out the resolutions, said the government had been slow in implementing agreements already reached with the association.
The doctors said that despite several meetings and assurances, many of the issues affecting their work had remained unresolved.
They warned that if nothing was done within two weeks, peace in the health sector could be disrupted.
The unresolved issues, according to them, include salaries, promotions, allowances, heavy workload, shortage of personnel and general welfare.
“The government concluded the review of existing remuneration and professional salary structures for doctors, saying the current framework no longer adequately reflected prevailing economic realities,” the resolution reads.
