Patients are dying in Nigeria as doctors continue to strike

Lagos Medical Doctors have been on strike for almost 10 weeks now and have refused to call it off until their demands are met. They want increase in salary among other things. Lagos State Govt have said they can't afford their salary demand. And Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola has vowed not to bat an eyelid.
More than 30 patients have died since the strike started. One I know died yesterday. And there seems to be no end to the strike.

Quite sad!
