 The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors, NAAD, has given the federal government a six-week window to fulfil its demand after which it will call a national executive council meeting to review the processes of the progress made. This comes as NAAD suspends a 64-day strike. According to it, the basis of the suspension is due to efforts by the federal government to fulfil some of its minimum demands, such as the payment of medical residency training fund, payment of outstanding salaries to its members on GIFMIS platform, withdrawal of secular by the head of service, removing house officers from the scheme of service, payment of deaths in service benefits to its members who lost their lives in the line of duty during the COVID-19 pandemic, among others. The president of NAAD, Dr Dari Ishaia, announced that its members will resume work on Wednesday this week.
