The industrial action embarked upon by the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) has been suspended.

Minister of Health, Professor Ali Pate, disclosed this to journalists after a closed-door meeting with the leadership of the striking medical workers on Friday.

Pate said the decision followed agreements reached with the leadership of the nursing association.

However, the leaders of the union declined to speak on the development after meeting with the federal government Friday afternoon.

The nurses and midwives under the association had commenced a seven-day warning strike on July 29, 2025, following what the union described as the government’s failure to respond meaningfully to its 15-day ultimatum issued on July 14, 2025.

The warning strike involving nurses in public health institutions across the country was scheduled to end on August 5, 2025 before the suspension.

The strike stemmed from longstanding concerns about nurses’ welfare and poor working conditions, and the government’s reluctance to address their concerns.

The union had demanded improved welfare, fair allowances, and better working conditions for nurses across federal health institutions.

LEADERSHIP recalls that the union’s National Chairman, Morakinyo Rilwan, had stated that the Federal Government failed to engage meaningfully with the association during the window provided.

Our correspondent cannot immediate reach get the details of the agreement by both sides leading to the suspension at the time of filing this report.
