ABUTH Suspends Five-Day Warning Strike

The five-day warning strike embarked on by the resident doctors at the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Zaria, has been suspended.

Dr Ashiru Mikail, Vice President of the Nigeria Association of Resident Doctors, (NARD) told newsmen in Zaria on Tuesday that the strike was suspended following a resolution with the hospital management.

He said the resident doctors resumed work at 8 am on Tuesday.

He noted that the strike was suspended following a marathon meeting between the association and the management of ABUTH.

“There was a serious commitment from the part of the management to address the demands of the association.

“The management had pledged to stop percentage salary payments to our members, which is one of the association’s grievances,” he noted.

The Vice President said the meeting had also taken measures to curtail further industrial disharmony between the association and ABUTH management.

Recall that the association had embarked on a 5-day warning strike on Monday to protest against percentage salary payments for members on the GIFMIS platform and non-payment of accoutrement allowance among others.
