Ex-ANAN President commends NARD for suspending 6 weeks strike
Doctors

A former President of the Association of National Accountants of Nigeria (ANAN), Dr Samuel Nzekwe, has commended the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) for suspending its six weeks strike.

Nzekwe gave the commendation in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday in Sango Ota, Ogun.

 

He described the suspension of the strike as a good development because the strike mostly affected the poor people.

 

`The suspension of the strike is a right step in the right direction as this will create more opportunity for Nigerians to have access to good medical attention,“ he said.

 

The former ANAN president appealed to the Federal Government to always honour and implement agreements made not only with NARD but other unions in the country.

 

“Whichever agreement the Federal Government made with NARD and other unions, they should try to implement it to the letter in order to forestall the future recurrence of industrial strike,” he said.

 

NAN recalls that the striking doctors had on Aug.2 embarked on a nationwide indefinitely strike to press home their demands.
