The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors has suspended its warning strike, two days after it began.

The doctors had downed tools on Friday morning but suspended the action on Saturday night, with members directed to resume work today (Sunday).

The President of the association, Dr. Tope Osundara, disclosed this in a WhatsApp message sent to our correspondent on Saturday night.

He said, “Some of our demands have been met. The government has promised to look into other issues. Strike suspended; resumption to work tomorrow (today). We did this as a sign of goodwill and to assist Nigerians who are seeking healthcare in our various facilities.” Punch
