NMA restores in Kano after governor’s intervention
The Nigeria Medical Association (NMA) has restored its services at the Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital in Kano, following the intervention of Gov. Abba Yusuf.
The state NMA Chairman, Dr. Abdurrahman Ali, said this at a news briefing at the Government House on Thursday in Kano and expressed his appreciation for the governor’s role in mediating in the situation.
He added that the governor’s efforts ensured that critical services would continue for Kano residents, particularly the vulnerable patients who rely heavily on the hospital.
The association had on Wednesday withdrawn services at the hospital due to the government’s failure to sack the state’s Commissioner for Humanitarian Affairs, Hajiya Amina Abdullahi over an alleged assault on a female doctor at the hospital.
