The Association of Resident Doctors, Federal Capital Territory Administration (ARD-FCTA), has suspended its indefinite strike.
President of the association, Dr. George Ebong, confirmed the development to reporters on Friday, saying members will resume work on Monday, September 22, 2025, by 8 a.m.
Dr. Ebong explained that the decision followed the intervention of the Senate Committee on Federal Territory Area Councils and Ancillary Matters, as well as in respect for the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.
He, however, disclosed that none of the resident doctors’ demands had been met at 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,” Dr. Ebong stated.
