Strike: Resident doctors extend ultimatum for 3 weeks ON JULY 25, 20207:41 PMIN NEWS Kindly Share This Story:FacebookTwitterEmailWhatsAppPinterestShare By Joseph Erunke ABUJA – RESIDENT doctors, Saturday, extended their early deadline given the federal government to meet their demands by three weeks. The doctors under the aegis of National Association of Resident Doctors, NARD, addressing the media in Abuja, said the decision was a fallout of their extraordinary meeting held in respect to government’s response to their demands. But the doctors warned that nothing will prevent them from embarking on industrial action if the government fails to address their demands before the end of the new ultimatum, expected to end on August 17. President of NARD, Dr Aliyu Sokomba, who spoke on behalf of executive members he led to the briefing, regretted that government had not demonstrated much willingness to address the union’s demands.
