Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, has urged newly-inducted doctors to desist from participating in persistent strikes, saying it is unethical for doctors to embark on strike.
The Minister gave the charge in a statement signed by the Deputy Director, Press, and Public Relations in the Ministry, Charles Akpan, in Abuja.
Ngige whose son, Dr. Andrew Ngige, is among the new inductees, urged the medical graduates to be of good behaviour and uphold the highest ethical standards while carrying out their duties.
He noted that the medical profession is a noble one and hence, they should abstain from any conduct which is capable of bringing their esteemed profession to disrepute.
