The Medical and Dental Consultants Association of Nigeria (MDCAN) has announced that its members will embark on a seven-day warning nationwide strike.
As reported by Vanguard on Wednesday, November 13, the strike will start on Monday, November 18.
The strike order was issued by the MDCAN’s national executive council (NEC). The directive asked members across all Nigerian universities and public medical facilities to comply.
This decision followed an extraordinary NEC meeting held on Monday, November 11, 2024, in Jos, Plateau state, where MDCAN reviewed the 21-day ultimatum it had earlier given the Bola Tinubu government, demanding an end to what it termed “discriminatory treatment” toward its members.

They claimed that Mbadiwe has questions to answer over alleged insubordination. In addition, MDCAN wants a review of the retirement age of medical consultants to 70 years “to address the current shortfall of critical manpower for training, research, and healthcare services in the country”.
