The minister made the appeal to the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) on Tuesday in Abuja.
The doctors had
embarked on an indefinite strike which started on August 2 to press home the implementation of the memorandum of understanding they entered into with the federal government in March 2021.
Mamora said discussing with the association and negotiating on ways to address the issues raised by the association would give opportunity for industrial peace and enable citizens to access healthcare.

He said: “I encourage you to ensure industrial peace in the health sector so that citizens can reap maximum benefits from your efforts.
The Rivers State government has ordered striking members of the National Association of Resident Doctors to resume work in the next 24 hours or be ready to “forfeit their salaries and risk being sacked”.
The directive was issued in a statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Doctor Tammy Danagogo on behalf of the state government.
Resident doctors under the employment of the state government on Monday joined their counterparts across Nigeria to embark on an indefinite strike over unresolved issues.
The resident doctors, however, pointed out some other issues which they have with the state government, including irregularities into payment of House officers as part of their grievances.
