NMA laments over killing of colleague’s wife

Kaduna State Branch of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has lamented the killing of their member’s wife by suspected kidnappers in the state.

Daily Trust Saturday reported the murder of the wife of Dr Philip Ataga whose body was found days after her abduction from her husband’s residence at Juji a week ago.

The State Chairman of the Association, Dr Stephen Kache at a news briefing said the members would stop providing service at odd hours until security improves in the state.

“The apparent targeting of doctors and their families has dampened the morale of doctors who no longer feel safe to attend to emergencies at odd hours,” he said.
