The outgoing chairman of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) FCT Chapter, Dr Charles Ugwuanyi, has urged members to unite to achieve common goals.
The NMA chairman, who spoke at a news conference in Abuja, emphasised the importance of unity among members while highlighting his administration’s efforts over the past two years.
He urged the incoming executive to resist any tendencies that could lead to disunity, emphasising that mutual respect and adherence to the association’s code of conduct and ethics are crucial.
Ugwuanyi noted that his administration had made significant achievements, particularly in maintaining the unity of the association in a cosmopolitan environment like Abuja.
He also mentioned key accomplishments, including welfare support for members, the acquisition of land, and raising public awareness about the association.
He acknowledged some unachieved goals but expressed confidence that the incoming executive would continue their efforts.
Ugwuanyi highlighted the NMA-FCT’s role in national politics, such as hosting the 2023 National Executive Council Meeting, and called for ongoing engagement with the federal government to improve doctors’ remuneration and working conditions.
He urged the incoming executive to build on the progress made and called for continued support from partners and sponsors.
