Sack letter over freedom of association @Nnamdi Azikiwe University

House Officers at the Nnamdi Azikwe University Teaching Hospital in Nnewi, Anambra State are being threatened of getting sacked by 4pm today over joining the Association of Resident Doctors in the state. Management of NAUTH yesterday April 1 posted a notice telling doctors they had only 24hours to rescind their decision to join the association or risk the withdrawal of their internship programme.

The House Officers say their decision to join was because of unaccountable deductions in salary and good working condition ...believing ARD would protect their interests. Aren't people free to join any association they want?...
