The Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, has urged members to disregard the strike suspension that was reportedly directed by its Lagos Chapter
This is contained in a statement made available to TheNigeriaLawyer signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Koin Selepreye.
Selepreye said state chapters have no authority to suspend the strike and the National Working Committee of the Union has stepped in requesting workers not to resume work
“Our attention has been drawn to the referenced publication signed by one Mr. Sanusi, Kamal A. (Dir. Admin/HR) requesting workers of Lagos State Judiciary to be on their duty posts on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays of every week, from Thursday, 29th April, 2021.
“The NWC have taken steps to curb this ugly situation and request all workers to disregard this directive as no State have the authority to suspend the ongoing strike, Lagos inclusive.” the statement reads in part.
He urged the public to disseminate the information to all workers, especially Lagos Judiciary Staff, for compliance
He said, “We are kindly requested to disseminate this information to reach all workers especially the Lagos State Judiciary Workers.”
Recall that the JUSUN has been on strike since April 6. The workers are demanding for financial autonomy for the nation’s judiciary in compliance with the Nigerian Constitution and a judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja which affirmed the relevant constitutional provisions in a January 2014 judgment.
