The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare has invoked the “No Work, No Pay” policy against the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) following their seven-day warning strike.

EDITOR’S PICKS

EKO HOT BLOG reports that the strike, which began on Monday, is in protest of the continued detention of Dr. Ganiyat Popoola-Olawale, a colleague who was abducted.

In a statement released on Thursday, spokesperson Ado Bako expressed the government’s disappointment with NARD’s decision to strike despite ongoing negotiations.

The ministry noted its significant efforts to address the doctors’ concerns and stressed that the strike was unwarranted given the progress in discussions.

The statement emphasized that the “No Work, No Pay” policy is intended to prevent disruption of essential healthcare services, not to dismiss the doctors’ valid concerns.

The ministry reiterated its commitment to improving healthcare workers’ welfare and working conditions and highlighted ongoing efforts with security agencies to secure Dr. Popoola-Olawale’s release.
