The Federal Government has lifted the suspension of Residency Training Programme in all federal hospitals with effect from Thursday, while the ongoing appraisal of the programme continues.


This was contained in a statement signed by the Special Assistant on Media and Communication to the Minister of Health, Dan Nwomeh.

The federal government has also reinstated all resident doctors sacked as a result of the suspension of the training programme.

The doctors’ reinstatement also took effect from Thursday.

“Accordingly, all Chief Medical Directors and Medical Directors of the training centres are directed to issue letters of reinstatement to all the resident doctors to enable them resume work immediately.

“The Federal Government urges the resident doctors to see the magnanimity of government in reinstating them as a goodwill gesture to engender greater commitment and dedication to their duties,” the statement said.
