Members of the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) have suspended the nationwide strike they embarked on to press for their demands from the federal government.

Emeka Orji, NARD president, said that the strike was suspended on Friday evening, adding that the resident doctors would resume work at 8 am on Saturday.

We just suspended the strike. Work to resume at 8 am tomorrow. We will review progress made in two weeks.
