The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has suspended the warning strike it embarked on two days ago. NARD President, Tope Osundara, confirmed the development on Sunday, stating that members were directed to resume duties without delay, The Cable reports. “The strike has been suspended. Some of our demands have been met. The government has promised to look into other issues. “We did this as a sign of goodwill and to assist Nigerians who are seeking healthcare in our various facilities,” Osundara said. Osundara said the resident doctors will review the federal government’s response to their remaining demands. According to him, the demands “not yet seeking immediate attention” include unpaid arrears and the downgrading of membership certificates from the West African Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria. He further highlighted other demands, including addressing the shortage of manpower and the prompt release of the revised remuneration circular for doctors by the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC). WAFFI TV recalls that the doctors declared a five-day warning strike on Friday, which disrupted activities in federal hospitals nationwide.
