Doctors at Federal Medical Centre Owerri today protested over unpaid wages and said they'll soon go for indefinite strike. The doctors complained that the FMC management has formed a habit of not paying salaries and entitlements, and with so many deductions when they eventually pay.
One of the protesters said the residents haven't been paid September 2013 salary. The house officers who worked for 3 months received payment for just two months with so many deductions. They say this isn't fair considering the health risks they're subjected to on a daily basis and the fact that they're always far away from their families on call only to have their salaries cut in half.
