Kate Henshaw Has Something To Say To Striking Doctors

Nollywood actress, Kate Henshaw has asked the striking doctors to end strike and remember their Hippocratic oath:

Treat the ill to the best of one's ability.

Medicals doctors are currently on strike, where some have already been sacked by the Federal government, and lives are lost everyday as a result of this.

This is a call doctors should answer. Not everyone has the ability to travel out of the country for medical treatment, and as it is said:

When two Elephants fight, it is the grass the suffers. 

See her post below:

It is really a sad thing when we do not value human life in our nation, Nigeria.. The total lack of basic and qualitative health care in this country is appalling. That some can afford to travel outside the country for their medical needs no matter how minute (myself included) does not mean we forget those who cannot. I am using this platform to call on the management of LUTH to kindly end this strike so that patients can get the necessary treatment. The work conditions there are a huge challenge but the doctors and nurses try to do their best in these circumstances.. A part of the Hippocratic Oath says to "treat the ill to the best of one's ability".. As many as can lend a voice please do... A lot of lives are at stake... Thank you and God bless you all..
