The Minister of Health, Ali Pate, has claimed that the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) has called off its strike action.
The Minister made the declaration on Friday shortly after a closed-door meeting with officials of the Nurses and Midwives Association in Abuja.
According to Pate, the striking nurses decided to call off the strike after both parties reached key agreements on aggrieved issues.
