Nigerian teaching hospital medical welfare disputes

Overview

The Association of Resident Doctors (ARD) at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital (LTH) in Ogbomoso has threatened to resume industrial action on August 28, 2026. This follows the expiration of an eight-week suspension period intended for the Oyo State Government and hospital management to address welfare concerns.

Unresolved demands include the release of the Medical Residency Training Fund, implementation of a new Professional Allowance table, payment of minimum wage arrears, and the recruitment of resident doctors and essential personnel. The ARD noted that current welfare conditions have caused gross manpower shortages and left staff overworked due to frequent call duties.
