The national industrial court has ordered the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) to suspend its strike “with immediate effect”.

The doctors had commenced the strike on August 1 over “irregular payment of salaries”, among other issues.

Efforts by the house of representatives to mediate between the federal government and NARD ended in a deadlock.

The federal government then instituted a suit against the association, asking the court for an order of interlocutory injunction restraining members of NARD from continuing with the action.

At the court session today, Tochukwu Maduka, counsel to the federal government, prayed the court for an order directing the defendant to suspend the strike pending the hearing and determination of the substantive suit.
