The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) on Sunday suspended its warning strike.
The doctors began the one-week warning strike on Wednesday, May 17.
The suspension was announced by NARD President, Dr. Emeka Orji, on Sunday in an interview with journalists.
He said the association suspended the action for two weeks after reaching some agreement with the government on Friday.
The president, however, said the doctors will meet again on the second day of June this year to review progress made with the agreement signed after which the association will decide on their next line of action.
The doctors are demanding, among other things, the payment of all salary arrears for their members as well as the immediate upgrade of infrastructure in public hospitals.
