The doctors had on
Wednesday commenced the strike to protest what they called insensitivity of the
management to their plight and payment of half salaries to members.
The doctors are
demanding that the hospital management must respect agreements reached over
full lateral implementation of skipping and payment of outstanding salaries.
A
NAN correspondent, who visited the hospital on Friday, however, observed that
full medical services were ongoing and resident doctors were sighted attending
to patients. Dr Mashor Mbwas, the Public Relations Officer of the association,
confirmed the suspension of the strike.
According to him, the industrial action
was suspended following the intervention of some prominent Nigerians who prevailed
on the management to make some commitments as regards the demands of the
doctors.
He said that his members had since resumed at their respective duty
posts in the hope that the management would honour its own part of the
agreement.
Also speaking, the Public Relations Officer of UCH, Mr Deji Bobade,
said that the management would continue to explore all avenues to ensure
peaceful co-existence in the hospital.Vanguard
