The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has issued a four-week ultimatum to the Federal Government to fully implement outstanding agreements on salaries, allowances and welfare, even as it extended the suspension of its Total Indefinite Comprehensive Strike (TICS).
The decision was taken at the end of the Association’s January National Executive Council (NEC) meeting and Scientific Conference, held between January 25th and 29th, 2026, in Jos, Plateau State.
In a communiqué jointly signed by NARD President, Mohammad Suleiman; Secretary-General, Shuaibu Ibrahim; as well as the Publicity and Social Secretary, Abdulmajid Ibrahim, the Association expressed appreciation to President Bola Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang and other key stakeholders for their roles in ongoing engagements.
NARD said the extension of the strike suspension for another four weeks was a goodwill gesture in recognition of what it described as progress made by the Federal Government.
