The National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives, Kaduna State chapter, has suspended its warning strike.
The association disclosed this in statement made available to PUNCH Online by its Chairman, Ishaku Yahaya, on Monday.
The union said it decided to suspend the strike following a level of seriousness and commitment made by the government through the office of the Secretary to the State Government, Head of Service and the Commissioner for Health which resulted in the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding.
“We resolved to suspend the five-day warning strike to give room for more negotiations and await the government to fulfill its side of the MoU,” the statement added.
Yahaya said the strike, which started on July 8, 2024 to press home their demands for an improved welfare package, recorded a huge success and 100 per cent compliance.
Ishaku commended the resilience, doggedness, and massive support of his members.
“Therefore, the strike is hereby suspended and you are expected to resume your normal duties on July 10, 2024.
“The State Administrative Council sincerely appreciates your massive support and resolute in making this struggle for the betterment of our welfare a huge success.
“We assure you of our readiness to represent you and to do that very well without fear or favour. Do not forget it is a suspension, meaning if the promises made are not fulfilled, we shall resume the industrial action at the appropriate time,” he stressed.
