The doctors who protested last week against the management of public hospitals and poor treatment of health workers by the state government, complained bitterly over the treatment of the police during the incident in which some doctors were allegedly shot by the police.
The association said that the closure of the hospitals was to express their grievances against the action of the police and the management of public hospitals by Gov. Okorocha.
NMA Chairman, Dr Hyacinth Emele and Secretary, Kyrian Duruewuru issued a press statement. Read it below...
"The association condemns the action of the police, the police acted the script of some government officials by shooting our members on a peaceful protest",
"Contrary to the police claim that NMA never obtained permission for the protest, it was monitored by the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Bisong and Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of New Owerri, Eric Uchegbu, who came with six vans loaded with armed policemen, escorting the protesters",
"The police vans which have been escorting them, at the Ware House roundabout, turned against the doctors, diverting them to end their protest at the Freedom Square and not the Government House as contained in their permit",
"At that point, the police, who were hitherto friendly, threw teargas at them and shot some of his members with live bullets".
Good.

Okorocha why are you treating your people like an animal? These are the people that elected in that office. After owing workers for several months you still send police to shoot at them. God is watching you.

ReplyDeleteOhhh... that's bad

ReplyDeleteRochas Okorocha is a raving mad man. He has turned Imo State upside down. Before he was elected Governor, a colleague of mine who knew him personally said that Rochas as the Governor will be the worst thing that will happen to Imo state. That statement has proved to be true in all ramifications.
ReplyDeleteGo to Owerri, all choice lands, beautiful edifice belong to him and his kids. Many govt. structures are named after his children.
He is seriously threatening to retire civil servants over the age of 45, whom he declared are too old and therefore brain dead, in order to give opportunity to the younger generation. This is good but he should start with himself, who is way above 45. At over 45, he too is too old and should therefore hand over to a younger person who will be capable of handling the affairs of the state and empathize with the suffering of the people.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteThat's bad.
ReplyDeleteRochas is like a curse to the people of Imo
ReplyDeleteAmbassadorial Shut down

ReplyDeleteMr Rochas these r ur ppl oooo.....
ReplyDeleteWhich way nija? Apc are touts in human skin
ReplyDeleteplease don't shut down hospitals because innocent people will suffer. the best treatment to the police is: stop treating them when they're admitted in any hospital. let the police commissioner and rochas okorocha be their doctors.
ReplyDeleteTrigger happy police men.Its a pity...
ReplyDeletewho is suffering in all these fight? the innocent Imolites but the opened their eyes and voted for him, checkout how many lives that would be lost in this three days, those in intensive care unit, emergencies, hmmmmm, who is to be blamed?
ReplyDeleteNnaNna nsogbu dikwa! Linda take note!
ReplyDeleteRochas we are watching ..... "Softly softly catchee monkey "
ReplyDeleteNigeria is gradually degeneration into a state of anomie. Some of the governors can at best be sent to undergo psychiatric check. A situation where a government agent (NPF) is used to brutalize doctors is definitely the height of madness. One thing is sure either the Governor of Imo State and indeed most APC governors are power drunk or they are incompetent invariably using brutality as cover up. So sad indeed!
ReplyDeletehmmmmmm.
ReplyDeletePolice brutality again! Please doctors consider the sick oo.
ReplyDeleteLinda mee k'anyi fu anya! @uchemacj

ReplyDeletena wa o, you didnt pay their salary, they were protesting you shot at them, later linda and her readers would say private hospitals should not do money before services were rendered, dont you collect money for adverts before putting them up on your blog? hypocrites. ..please the strike shoukd be more than 3days sef, just yesterday a nurse was beaten by one SSS in uch emergency, sharpsharp the nurses went on strike,I dont blame them o
