Zambian Doctors Association President fired for leading protest for better working conditions

The Resident Doctors Association of Zambia President Dr Brian Sampa has been dismissed from the Civil Service. This follows a recent go slow by Resident Doctors after a failed government promise to meet their demands. Doctors say they feel cheated after the government failed to honour its promise to pay arrears and settling-in allowances, gratuities, creation of SRMO/Registrar positions, and the employment of the more than 500 doctors. The Association had suspended the go-slow after considering the threat posed to the country by the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Authorities fired Dr. Sampa for allegedly inciting his members. Dr. Sampa spoke to SABC News and said despite the intimidation from the authorities, he will continue to fight early for better working conditions for doctors, some who spent as much as nine months without pay.
