In the present article, magneto-micropolar nanofluid flow with suction or injection in a porous medium over a stretching sheet for the heat and mass transfer is analyzed numerically. Both Hall and ion-slip effects are considered along with variable thermal diffusivity. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary differential equations using usual similarity transformations. These coupled non-linear differential equations are solved using the shooting method. Effects of prominent parameter on velocities, temperature and concentration are discussed graphically. Numerical values of skin-friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are also tabulated and discussed.
