The National Association of Resident Doctors has suspended its nationwide industrial action. 

President of the association Dr ALIYU SOKUMBA confirmed this to newsmen.

Dr SOKUMBA disclosed that the union will review the progress made in talks with the Federal Government in two weeks.

The Federal Government and the doctors reached an agreement on Wednesday in a bid to end the industrial action.

The doctors embarked on the strike to resolve issues bothering on group life insurance for doctors and other health care workers, payment of death-in-service benefit to next of kin and beneficiaries.

They are also demanding universal implementation of the medical Residency Training Act in all Federal and state hospitals, immediate review of the hazard allowance of healthcare workers and payment of the COVID-19 inducement allowance.
