The doctors, during the protest on Friday in Lagos, called on the Federal Government to intensify efforts toward her safe release.
EKO HOT BLOG reports that the doctors are seen displaying placards with different descriptions demanding the immediate release of Ganiyat, a Registrar in the Department of Ophthalmology at the National Eye Centre Kaduna.
According to the medical professionals, Ganiyat had been abducted on December 26, 2023 alongside her husband and nephew.
The President of ARD, Dr Salawu Abiola, expressed displeasure of the Association over the sad development, calling on the Federal Government and security agencies for urgent action to ensure their immediate release.
Abiola decried that the doctor had been in the hands of her abductors for more than seven months now.
“We are embarking on this solidarity walk to express our displeasure over the sad situation of one of our colleagues being under captive for more than seven months now.
“As a matter of fact, we are calling on the Federal Government and security agencies to expedite efforts to ensure that Ganiyat is safely released,” Abiola said.
The ARD president recalled that NARD had made a series of efforts to facilitate release of the abducted doctor and threatened to embark on industrial action from August 26, if Ganiyat was not released.
He, therefore, stated that ARD would not hesitate to join the industrial action until the abducted doctor was freed.
