Judiciary workers in Osun State have embarked on an indefinite strike, citing the Chief Judge’s actions for their decision.
The strike, which took effect immediately, follows an incident where police officers deployed tear gas to disperse protesting workers and journalists gathered at the High Court entrance in Oke-Fia, the state capital.
Gbenga Eludire, Chairman of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) Osun Chapter, declared that the workers would no longer provide services until further notice.
“In light of the police’s actions and the Chief Judge’s attitude, I, Comrade Gbenga Eludire, hereby order all workers in the sector to withdraw their services until further notice,” Eludire stated.
