LASG Pleads with Judiciary Workers to Shelve Strikes
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Lagos State government has appealed to the striking members of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, to go back to work and open the gates of the courts to litigants.

The appeal was made at a meeting which the executives of JUSUN in the state held with representatives of the government on Thursday.

The state government, during the meeting, impressed it on the workers that there was no need for the strike as the judiciary is already enjoying full financial autonomy in accordance with the provisions of the constitution, the various court judgment and Executive Order 10.

The meeting was presided by the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Kazeem Alogba.

Others at the meeting included the Attorney General, Moyosore Onigbanjo, SAN, the Head of Service among others.

JUSUN had presented a table of demand which included : “Full Implementation of Financial Autonomy as supported in the 1999 Constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria (As Amended), Eight of Staff busses, allowances for the members of Staff which should be gazetted in the payslip, special duty allowances, robe allowance for the legal registrar, incidental allowance for the Sheriff and wardrobe allowance for other cadres.

A report of the meeting by the state Assistant Secretary JUSUN, Adesanya Dare David stated that Justice Alogba who presided over the meeting stated clearly that” Lagos State Judiciary has been enjoying the total compliance of Financial Autonomy on Recurrent Expenditures at 100 per cent from the State and on Capital Expenditure, he also stated that Lagos State Government has also been compliance 75 per cent.”

The Chief judge stated further that “though it could be better they are very satisfied with the Lagos State Government and the strike action is not needed in Lagos state.”

The report stated that the Chief Judge assured them that their request on staff welfare would be dealt with as a matter of urgency and that a chain of communication has been opened on the issue.

The report said a committee was set up immediately to look into it and listed the committee to include the Chief Registrar, The Permanent Secretary, Establishment and Training, Permanent Secretary, Industrial Relations, Permanent Secretary. Solicitor General, the Special Adviser on Labour Related Matter and the JUSUN representatives.

Onigbanjo in his statement confirmed that the judiciary has been enjoying Financial Autonomy and he sees no reason for the strike action in Lagos State.

The Head of Service (HoS), Hakeem Muri-Okunola in his address, stated that while he cannot prevent the union from joining the strike, it should be in solidarity since the State has been 100 per cent compliant.

He also pleaded that the courts should be open for service to the public.

The JUSUN Executive, in their reply to the meeting, stated that the report would be forwarded to the National Secretariat in Abuja for further directive.
