The management of the FUTA Teaching Hospital (FUTATH), Akure, Ondo State, has refuted allegations levelled against it by the leadership of organised labour in Ondo State, describing the claims as false and misleading.
In a statement issued following an emergency meeting of labour leaders held on Thursday, the public relations officer of the hospital, Temitope Fayehun, rejected the allegation contained in the communiqué.
According to the management, its actions throughout the transition from state to federal ownership have been in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) governing the process and all extant federal government regulations.
The management reassured members of staff, patients and the general public that the IPPIS capturing exercise has been conducted transparently, fairly and in line with procedures approved by the appropriate federal government authorities.
The hospital expressed concern that recent actions by some labour leaders, including disruptions to clinical services and attempts to interfere with the smooth operation of the hospital, have the potential to endanger patients who depend on the facility for life-saving medical care.
While reaffirming its commitment to resolving every legitimate concern affecting members of staff, the management maintained that constructive dialogue, mutual respect and adherence to due process remain the most appropriate means of addressing issues arising from the transition into the federal system.
