The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has directed its members to resume work today, September 2, 2024, after a seven-day nationwide warning strike.
The strike was embarked upon to press for the rescue of their colleague, Dr. Ganiyat Popoola, who was kidnapped eight months ago.
NARD President, Dr. Dele Abdullahi, said the association would review the Federal Government’s commitment to resolving their demands in the next three weeks. “We are suspending the strike now, but we will be meeting to review the progress the government has made in the next three weeks,” he said.
The strike was called off after the Federal Government showed a better engagement with the association. However, NARD remains hopeful that the government will sustain its current line of action.
“We are resuming on Monday, September 2, 2024, at 8 am. The engagement of the government has been a little bit better. But we are hopeful that they will sustain this current line of action,” Dr. Abdullahi added.
