The indefinite strike that started on April 8 by members of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, (JUSUN), in Ogun State has been suspended.

Mr. Adewale Adenekan, the union’s publicity secretary disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abeokuta.

WITHIN NIGERIA reported that the union earlier this month embarked on an indefinite strike over the non-payment of 40 per cent peculiar allowance by the state government.

The statement said its National Officers and the Ogun JUSUN Executive Committee members had on Monday held a meeting with the Secretary to the State Government, SSG.

It said the meeting also had in attendance the state chairmen of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and Joint Negotiation Council, JNC.

After the meeting with the representatives of the State Government, the authenticity of the unions demand was established,” Adenekan said.

However, the bone of contention is now the timing of the implementation of the unions demand, putting into consideration the imminent announcement by the Federal Government of the new minimum wage which is expected on May 1.

This will be billed for implementation between May and June 2024 for both Federal and State workers.”
