The Nigerian Medical Association,
NMA, has secured a court injunction from the Nigerian Industrial Court
restraining the Nigerian government from sacking resident doctors.
The injunction was granted Monday,
nearly two weeks after the government fired the 16,000 resident doctors and
suspended residency training.
The order came a day after the NMA
suspended its strike that lasted more than seven weeks.
“We’ve secured court injunction
against implementation of the circular suspending residency training programme
and sack of residents,” the Secretary General of the NMA, Adewunmi Alayaki
tweeted Monday.
“All the CMDS/MDs are expected to be
served within the next 36 hours. Let’s remain calm,” he added
