Implementation of CONMESS and ongoing medical students protest





The Management of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, wishes to address the public regarding recent developments surrounding the implementation of the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS) and the resulting protest by medical students of the institution.
During a recent engagement with the leadership of the Nigerian Association of Medical and Dental Academics (NAMDA), LAUTECH Branch, the University, made a formal commitment to commence the implementation of CONMESS scheduled to begin with the November, 2025 salary cycle. Full implementation will then follow by July 2026. Furthermore, the university pledged to consider the payment of arrears thereafter.
This offer, which was made in good faith, with careful consideration of the University’s financial sustainability and long-term institutional stability,  is a reflection of Management’s genuine commitment to improving the welfare of its Medical and Dental academic staff while safeguarding the interests of the entire University community.
Regrettably, the Association declined the offer. This decision has triggered a protest by medical students, who are understandably concerned about the potential impact on their academic progression and clinical training.
The University appeals to all stakeholders; staff, students, parents, and the general public, to remain calm and exercise restraint. Management is committed to resolving the matter amicably and in a manner that prioritises the welfare of students and the integrity of the academic calendar while staying open to dialogue. 
We consequently reaffirm our dedication to excellence, equity, and responsible governance, and we urge NAMDA to reconsider its stance in the interest of our students and the future of Medical education at LAUTECH.

Thank you.
