Health workers in Kaduna State have called off the five-day warning strike that began on Monday.
Remember that the workers went on strike to demand an upgrade in their benefit package.
Nassa Yashi, State Secretary of the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM), issued a statement on Wednesday in Kaduna.
He stated, “The health workers had a frantic and meaningful discussion with the government, which resulted in the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).”
“The suspension is also intended to allow for additional negotiations while the government fulfills her half of the MOU. The strike is hereby suspended, and workers are expected to resume their routine tasks immediately.
“The state administrative council (SAC) sincerely appreciates your massive support and resoluteness in making this struggle for the betterment of our welfare a huge success.”
Yashi stated that they would represent their members without fear or favor.
“Do not forget, it is suspension, meaning if the promises made are not fulfilled, we shall resume the industrial action at the appropriate time,” said the spokesperson.
