@lth_ard@aproko_doctor@oyostategovt@nard_nigeria@the_beardedsina@thenigeriandoc Some people may be asking why we have gone on strike again.
It's because the things we have been clamoring for since 5 years ago, 3 years ago 1 year ago, 2 months ago, have not been done.
We're understaffed, overworked as a result, yet we're underpaid.
This is uncalled for.
The remaining doctors will bear the load of the gap left. Which will obviously reflect in the quality of care that the patients receive. Governing bodies have refused to listen to doctors and whenever we raise our voices, we are treated like the enemy.
We have a healthcare crisis on our hands.
Are we waiting until there is a total collapse?
From having over 250 resident doctors to now barely 60 across all departments. Lautech Teaching Hospital is at an all-time low performance. Our lamentation still goes to the governor and people of Oyo to save us.

Please save LTH from extinction
NARD supports the strike action by the Resident doctors at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso, which commenced on July 29, 2025.
The decision follows the expiration of a three-week ultimatum issued to hospital management and the Oyo State Government over unfulfilled promises.
Despite partial actions taken on certain arrears and reimbursements, several key demands remain unmet. These include payment of the new minimum wage with arrears from January 2025, release of the Medical Residency Training Fund (MRTF), provision of accoutrement allowances, recruitment of additional resident doctors, and renovation of dilapidated call rooms.
The strike notice, signed by the Association of Resident Doctors’ President Dr. Stephen Adedokun and General Secretary Dr. Adedapo Mustapha, stated that doctors will not resume work until tangible and acceptable actions are taken.
They also raised alarm over the dwindling workforce, citing a drastic drop in the number of resident doctors from nearly 270 to less than 65, leading to extreme pressure and risking a collapse of hospital services.
The Oyo State Government has yet to issue an official response to the strike action.
@Nigerian_Doctor@lth_ard@lautechofficial@seyimakinde@oyostategovt@FeedbackOYSG This attitude of the government fuels the zeal to leave the country. Since the government said they will train new doctors if the ones on ground leave, the citizens will reap from their wisdom in taking such stance. The ones on ground also have decided not to be at receiving end.
The strike action, previously suspended on the premise of a 3 month allowance to resolve the cries of the association which includes non-payment of the new minimum wage, accoutrement allowance and MRTF, & gross paucity of Resident doctors across all department, yielded no fruit
The ARD LTH Ogbomoso, on the 29th of July 2025, resumed its indefinite strike action initially suspended on the grounds of appeal by the hospital management and Oyo state gov't.
@lth_ard@seyimakinde@FeedbackOYSG@oyostategovt@nard_nigeria "🎁💃GOOD NEWS, NARDITES!🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁
We are pleased to inform you that the 2025 MRTF has started dropping for our members."
As LTH resident doctors hear this news from various quarters, the feeling is like you perceiving the aroma of your neighbor's soup which is not for you.
@seyimakinde@FeedbackOYSG@oyostategovt@nard_nigeria If the government cannot or is not ready to do the needful for LAUTECH Teaching Hospital, then they should convert it to something else. No junior resident in some department. No MRTF, no minimum wage, no enough staff. What a shame!
@seyimakinde there are just 10 houseofficers in the whole of LAUTECH Teaching Hospital @lth_ard as of this day. Reason? A disparity of >60k exists between their pay and that at the Federal Teaching hospitals, same for Residents. Unacceptable!

Tinubu daringly threw our diversity to the wind maintained his Muslim-Muslim ticket. Went ahead and hired fake bishops. Made carricature of Christian's communion.
But na PO you're accusing of religion intolerance.
I'm an APC member but with all due this respect, you're mad.
"For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous." 1 John 5:3
"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city." Revelation 22:14
"Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: BUT KNOW THOU, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment." Ecclesiastes 11:9 😀
A great admonition!
"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
But it won't continue further. For the Lord shall restore His complete truth in His Church, with or without the scribes and Pharisees of our days.
Yes. He surely will and no one can stop Him.
"Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, Saying The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not." Matthew 23:1-3
They taught correctly according to the law but practiced wrongly against what they taught. Hence, the Lord's instruction.
But presently, many of what is taught and practiced by the scribes and Pharisees of our days are wrong.
It's worse now than then. 😰
