Nigerian Resident Doctors Declare Nationwide Strike from Nov 1 Over Unmet Demands
The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has announced an indefinite nationwide strike starting from November 1, 2025, citing the government's failure to address key issues such as unpaid arrears, promotions, and poor working conditions. Dr. Muhammad Suleiman, the NARD President, confirmed the decision following a review by the association's executive council.
This strike is expected to affect public hospitals across Nigeria, potentially leading to a breakdown in healthcare services, especially in teaching hospitals heavily reliant on resident doctors. The strike stems from ongoing grievances and unmet promises, including delayed promotions and inadequate welfare for doctors.
