The Industrial Court has adjourned a suit against striking resident doctors under the aegis of the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) instituted by the Federal Government till September 15, 2021.
The Minister of Labour and Employment Dr Chris Ngige took the striking doctors to court over the abdication of their responsibilities.
The Industrial Court summoned the doctors to explain why the “no work, no pay” rule should not be applied against them.
The resident doctors began an indefinite strike on August 2, 2021, due to the failure of the government to meet most of their demands.
