The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has suspended its nationwide warning strike and directed its members to resume work today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The association began a seven-day strike over the abduction of Ganiyat Popoola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Popoola, a registrar in the department of ophthalmology at the National Eye Centre in Kaduna, was abducted on December 27, 2023, alongside her husband and nephew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They were abducted at the senior staff quarters of the eye centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While her husband was released in March after discussions with the abductors, Popoola and her nephew remain in captivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In July, the association issued a two-week ultimatum to government over Popoola\u2019s abduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking to TheCable on Monday, Dele Abdullahi, NARD president, said discussions with the government had gone well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was a seven-day warning strike so we have suspended it yesterday. The engagement with the federal government is currently going well and they have agreed to a line of actions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will be meeting to review the progress the government has made in the next three weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Joint Health Sector Unions (JOHESU) had expressed solidarity with the resident doctors on their strike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The union denounced Popoola\u2019s abduction and called on the federal government and state authorities to mobilise security agencies to secure her release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The union also urged President Bola Tinubu to implement advanced security measures to combat the rising threats of kidnapping, banditry, and organised crimes in Nigeria.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
