Abbas Meets Tinubu Over Ongoing Strike by NARD

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Abbas Tajudeen, has met with the President Bola Tinubu, over the ongoing strike by the National Association of Resident Doctors of Nigeria (NARD).

Abbas, who met with Tinubu on Tuesday, presented an overview of his earlier meeting with the NARD leadership to the president.

Recall that, earlier in the week, the Speaker had engaged in discussions with the national leadership of NARD, where he urged the doctors to suspend their planned strike.

Abbas, while seeking their patience and understanding of the doctors, requested a two-week period to find solutions to the issues raised by the association.
