The Zimbabwe Hospital Doctors' Association (ZHDA) has appealed for President Robert Mugabe's intervention to resolve its salary deadlock with the Health Services Board (HSB) which has resulted in newly-qualified doctors going unpaid for two months.
The ZHDA wants the HSB dissolved for failing to champion doctors' salary cause and its recent decision to issue new contracts to enforce discipline and ensure medical students on housemanship abide by a strict code of conduct.
He added, "The ZHDA, on behalf of their newly-qualified doctors, calls upon the President to direct the Health Services Board to end this madness where new doctors have not been remunerated for the past two months."
