The National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives has called off its warning strike.
This was disclosed to our correspondent on Saturday by the Assistant Secretary-General of NANNM, Chidi Aligwe.
On Wednesday, nurses and midwives in the country embarked on a seven-day warning strike to press home their long-standing demands, including an upward review of shift allowance, adjustment of uniform allowance, a separate salary structure for nurses, an increase in core duty allowance, mass recruitment of nurses, and the establishment of a nursing department in the Federal Ministry of Health, among others.
