Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) Edo State branch has appealed to the proponents of the ongoing EndBadGovernance protest to create a right of way for doctors and medical personnel “to attend to emergencies and provide critical care, as our relatives, friends, and fellow citizens with critical medical conditions should have and be given a chance to live.”

The branch made the appeal via a Press Statement signed by Dr.Benson Okwara, its Deputy Chairman, which was made available to Popular News on Thursday afternoon.

“We are not oblivious of the difficulties and hardship that bedevil our current realities today. They are real and directly affect all social classes.

“However, as we navigate this critical moment in our nation’s history, it is important we also prioritize the well-being and safety of our citizens.”

Going further, he averred that “hospitals and healthcare facilities should therefore remain accessible, and medical professionals should be allowed to perform their duties without hindrance, at all times. We wish to emphasize that doing otherwise will limit the ability of those in need of medical care to access such care. The consequences of this is better imagined.

“So, as we advance our right to decent living, let us work together to protect the vulnerable among us. We also urge the government to urgently engage in meaningful dialogue with Nigerians and address the demands of the movement.”

In conclusion, he submitted: “Together, we can create a better future for Nigeria, where the rights of all citizens are respected, and our collective well-being is prioritized.”
