Judiciary Staff Union Of Nigeria, (JUSUN), Kogi State Branch, have embarked on an indefinite strike over unfulfilled promises made by the Kogi State government.
According to a statement by JUSUN Chairman and Secretary, Comrade Emmanuel Waniko and Comrade Sule Suberu respectively, the Union said the strike became necessary due to the failure of the Kogi State Government to pay their October, 2024 arrears and 2025 leave bonus.
“You will recall that the last strike was suspended before its commencement as a result of the purported approval by the Governor, which was communicated to us through the Heads of Courts”.
JUSUN described as unfortunate that Governor Usman Ododo’s promise of payment could not be fulfilled even as members waited patiently to see its fulfillment.
The statement declared, “That effective from Thursday 4” December, 2025 all staff of Kogi State Judiciary should proceed on an indefinite strike.
“That no staff should be seen engaging in any official functions during this period until further notice.”
