Resident doctors under the umbrella of the Association of Resident Doctors (ARD) at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, have suspended their three-day warning strike and officially resumed full clinical duties across all wards and outpatient clinics.
The decision to call off the industrial action followed an emergency general meeting (EGM) where leadership reviewed ongoing negotiations with the teaching hospital’s management and federal authorities regarding workplace security, power supply restoration, and salary adjustments.

Primary Demands and Management Commitments
The industrial action was initially triggered by persistent infrastructure and welfare challenges impacting medical care delivery at the tertiary health institution:
- Hospital Infrastructure & Electricity: ARD leadership highlighted that chronic power supply disruptions severely hindered surgical procedures, emergency response, and intensive care unit (ICU) operations. Management committed to interim power restoration measures and long-term grid solutions.
- Campus Security Enhancements: Following reported incidents of security breaches targeting healthcare personnel within hospital premises, management agreed to bolster physical security presence and strictly enforce gate control protocols.
- Medical Welfare & Allowances: Disbursing outstanding medical allowance adjustments and addressing payroll deductions were highlighted during roundtable discussions with management representatives.
Current Operational Status at UCH Ibadan
Following the formal suspension notice issued by the ARD executive committee, full medical services—including emergency care, surgical theaters, specialty clinics, and ward rounds—have returned to normal operations. Patients and the general public are advised that clinical appointments are proceeding as scheduled.
