Doctors who have gone on strike in Osun state to protest unsavory working conditions may now be in for more than they are bargaining for.

The governor gave the hint in Osogbo on Thursday while speaking at the 75th birthday anniversary of the founding President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Hassan Sunmonu, Punch reports.
Aregbesola expressed shock that despite his efforts to persuade the doctors, who commenced the ongoing strike on September 28, 2015, they had stuck to their guns.
He said, “To my dismay, they stuck to their guns. But you are either in or out. We have decided to use the civil service rule.
“The Head of Service will implement that as from Monday. Head of Service, it is over to you.”
Some of those present started grumbling loud enough to attract the attention of the governor, who was forced to ask if some of the doctors were present at the occasion.
Earlier, the Permanent Secretary of the Hospitals Management Board, Mrs. Omolara Ajayi, had while addressing journalists, appealed to the doctors to resume work in the interest of the masses.
She said, “I want to appeal to them to resume in the interest of the masses, people who do not have an alternative. A life that is lost is lost forever.”
