Nigerian Resident Doctors Halt Strike, Resume Work After Demands Met

Nigerian resident doctors have suspended their warning strike after two days of action, directing members to resume work following negotiations. The President of the association confirmed the decision in a communique, addressing unresolved welfare and funding issues.

The strike had disrupted services in public hospitals nationwide, with resident doctors demanding improvements in welfare, funding, and certification processes. The action aimed to push for better conditions for healthcare workers, including the implementation of the 2024 CONMESS structure and addressing specific issues in Kaduna State and Ladoke Akintola University Teaching Hospital.
