The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), Abia Chapter, has commended Governor Alex Otti for approving the 100% Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS) for employed doctors in the state. 


The state NMA Chairman, Dr. Ezinwa Ezuruike, in a statement issued on Wednesday in Umuahia, said the move restores pay parity for state-employed doctors and demonstrates the governor's commitment to strengthening the health sector and improving the welfare of health professionals.


The NMA also commended the governor's approval of the recruitment of 771 new healthcare workers across various professional cadres in the state, describing the strategic investment in human resources for health as a bold step towards revitalizing Abia's health system.


The association reaffirmed its members' commitment to delivering quality healthcare services across the state, seeing the gesture as a call to renewed dedication and excellence.


The NMA also expressed appreciation to Governor Otti, the Commissioner for Health, Professor Enoch Uche, and the Governor's Special Adviser on Health, Dr. Ngozi Azodo, for their contributions to the achievement.
