Members of the Ondo State chapter of the Nigeria Medical Association and its affiliates have suspended their industrial dispute with the state government after the intervention by lawmakers and other stakeholders.

At a parley with lawmakers at the Ondo State House of Assembly on Wednesday, Akure, the medical practitioners called on the state government to honour the terms of the agreement reached with them, especially payment of their outstanding salaries, in line with their colleagues in the civil service.

NMA State Chairman, Dr Stella Adegbehingbe thanked the lawmakers and other stakeholders for their intervention, but called for the prompt payment of their outstanding salaries, to act as a stimulant to members who have been out of work for some time.
