President Jonathan Assures On Quick End To Unhealthy Rivalries In Health Sector.President Goodluck Jonathan pledged on Friday in Abuja that the Federal Government will act expeditiously on the report of the Presidential Committee of Experts on Inter-Professional Relationship in the Public Health Sector to end “unhealthy rivalries” among healthcare professionals.

Receiving the report of the committee, which was headed by former Head of Service, Alhaji Mahmud Yayale Ahmed, President Jonathan said the Federal Government will review the report immediately with a view to issuing a white paper on it and beginning the implementation of its accepted recommendations early next year.

President Jonathan said he was optimistic that the implementation of the committee’s accepted recommendations will help to end unhealthy rivalries and incessant strikes in the public health sector, which, according to him, had unfortunately created an atmosphere of uncertainty in the sector, leaving many people with fewer options for quality medical services.
