  • PublishedSeptember 20, 2025

The Association of Resident Doctors of the Federal Capital Territory Administration has suspended the indefinite strike it started on Friday.

This was announced by the President of ARD-FCTA, Dr George Ebong, on Friday.

He said its members are expected to resume work on Monday, 22nd September 2025, at 8 am.

He noted that the strike suspension comes after the intervention of the Nigerian Senate Committee on Federal Territory Area Councils & Ancillary Matters and respect for FCT Minister Nyesome Wike.

However, Dr Ebong revealed that none of its demands had been met as of the time of filing the report.

“The senate intervened. Even though none of our demands have been met yet, they assured us that they will talk to the minister. “We hope the minister will listen to us, because we respect him,” he stated.
