On the list, NYSC members are included without proper orientation, protective gear or plans for remuneration. A source told Nyscinfo correspondent.
“Of the about 50 consultants who work in the hospital, only three volunteered because of the conditions of work in the hospital.
“This made the management forcefully include the names of NYSC nurses, doctors and pharmacists.
