Abuja doctors suspend week-long strike, join national industrial action

The doctors began an “indefinite strike” last Tuesday over unpaidhazard and inducement allowance and the non-implementation of the variation of the 2018 promotion exercise.

Mr Aigbovo, however, said the Abuja doctors will be joining the umbrella body, the National Association of Resident Doctors who commenced a nationwide “indefinite strike” on Monday. The doctors are also protesting the non-implementation of life insurance policy for their colleagues in the frontline.“We just resumed the suspended strike which we embarked in June this year. We suspended the strike to give the government time to assess our concerns. Unfortunately, they failed to do so,” he said.
