The President of the Association, George Ebong, in a statement on Friday, said the FCTA under Wike had met their demands.
On Wednesday, the doctors grounded all FCTA-owned hospitals in Abuja over unpaid arrears and other demands.
However, in an update on Friday, Ebong revealed that its members had started receiving alerts of the 6-month salary arrears.

He also said Wike had approved and ordered immediate payment of the accoutrement allowance that was owed, approval of the medical residency bonding to 2 years, approval of the immediate employment of doctors and allied health workers to cushion the severe shortage of manpower, and approval and immediate payment of locum doctors and other health workers that were owed.
Ebong therefore noted that with the intervention by Wike, doctors in the FCT are requested to resume work today, 25 January 2025.
He added that the intervention had ended the impending indefinite shutdown of hospitals in Abuja.
Ebong, however, urged the minister to meet other of its demands to avert future action.
