Oyo doctors suspend strike, return to work after one week

The Association of Medical and Dental Officers (AMDO) in Oyo State has ended its one-week strike and returned to work. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that doctors resumed duty on Monday after suspending the strike on October 26. The AMDO General Secretary, Dr. Abdulazeez Gbadamosi, announced the suspension during an emergency congress held on Sunday.

Gbadamosi thanked the doctors for their compliance with the strike and the confidence placed in their leadership. He also acknowledged the efforts of the elders who facilitated mediation and partial restoration of industrial harmony. The congress decided to suspend the strike from November 2 to November 15, allowing for further negotiations.

Dr. Gbadamosi directed members to resume full clinical activities at 8am on Monday. A review of the negotiations' progress will be conducted later.
