 Resident Doctors to begin indefinite strike on November 1


The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has announced plans to commence an indefinite nationwide strike starting November 1, 2025. NARD President, Mohammad Suleiman, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday, saying the strike directive was issued after the expiration of a 30-day ultimatum earlier given to the Federal Government over unresolved demands.


This latest action comes after a five-hour meeting of the association’s National Executive Council (NEC) on Saturday. “The NEC has marshalled out minimum demands, strike monitoring directives, and ‘no work, no pay/no pay, no work’ resolutions needed for a successful execution of this action,” the statement reads in part. According to Suleiman, the decision followed the expiration of a 30-day ultimatum earlier issued to the Federal Government to address its demands.


“Today, after a 5-Hour Extra-Ordinary National Executive Council Meeting, the Members of NEC have issued out new marching orders to us once again. “The NEC has unanimously directed us to declare a total, comprehensive and indefinite strike action to commence on Friday 31st October 2025 at 11:59pm.” Suleiman said the National Officers Committee (NOC) has been mandated to ensure full compliance with the directive and to implement strike monitoring and enforcement measures across all centres.


He added that the association’s centre presidents and general secretaries have been directed to convene emergency congress meetings to brief members on the resolutions. “We have reported to NEC and NEC has decided. The NOC will carry out this directive to its latter and in full compliance. “NEC has also decided that centre Presidents and General Secretaries shall go back and call Emergency Congress Meetings to brief Members on the details there-in.


The NARD President accused some government and non-government actors of “evil and exploitative plans” against resident doctors, adding that the union will “collectively resist” such moves.
