The Minister of Labour and Employment, Muhammad Maigari Dingyadi, held talks with the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives to avert their proposed strike.
He implored them to step back from their planned action, as a strike is not the best solution to industrial disputes.
The Minister urged the Association to embrace dialogue while the government continues to work on addressing their concerns.
The meeting will continue on Friday at the Ministry of Health, as the government works out a resolution to the dispute.
