Rivers State branch of the Nigerian Medical Association, NMA, has
arrested twelve quack medical doctors and have shut four illegal clinics
as it continues its campaign against quackery in the state which has
been on for five months.
Chairman of the NMA, Dr. Ibitrokoemi Krubo, who gave this breakdown
while reviewing the campaign against quackery by the association said
the campaign by the NMA is as a result of its association’s zero
tolerance for quackery, assuring that the campaign would continue.
Krubo appealed to the public to assist the association in its fight
against quackery by reporting cases of poor professional practices by
medical doctors.
He also advised patients to insist on seeing the NMA identity cards of a doctor before treatment.
