Public doctors in Nigeria today August 7th called off their 5-week old strike to simply help with the fight contrary to the outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in Nigeria. In a statement issued by the Nigerian Medical Association, NMA, the doctors listed “the incursion of Ebola into Nigeria” as a primary reason for suspending the strike. Just yesterday, the Lagos state government through the Commissioner for Health, Dr Idris Jide, had appealed to striking doctors to call of the strike in order to help support the spread of the virus.
