The strike by the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) entered its 17th day on Monday.
In a post on X at the weekend, NARD called on the federal government to immediately conclude a long-delayed Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).
It also demanded a review of the outdated Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS).
The union said: “Dear Nigerians, Doctors Deserve a Fair Deal! For long we have waited for a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), a simple, written promise that ensures fairness, clear work terms, and proper pay. However, the government continues to delay, while doctors face rising costs and eroding morale.
“We demand the immediate conclusion of the CBA and review of the outdated CONMESS salary structure.”
