Nigeria Medical Doctors Call Off Nationwide Strike

Resident doctors under the aegis of National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) have suspended their indefinite strike action, which started on June 15.

The organisation said it took the decision in order to enable the government time to fulfil outstanding demands following an appeal by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum and other stakeholders.
