Nigerian Doctors' Strike Leaves Healthcare Services in Crisis

The ongoing strike by doctors, led by NARD President Dr. Muhammad Suleiman, has paralyzed healthcare services in Nigeria for five days. Major hospitals in Abuja, including Asokoro and Kubwa General Hospitals, are experiencing a shortage of medical staff, leading to long wait times and patients being turned away.

Patients like Ruth Onyema and Yakubu Isah are struggling to receive treatment, with some resorting to private clinics. The strike has caused frustration among patients like Rebecca Benjamin, Abimbola Surajudeen, and Fatima Ibrahim, who are unable to access essential medical care.
