The Ogun State branch of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, says it is embarking on an indefinite strike starting today, April 8.
The decision to strike follows a 14-day ultimatum the union gave to the Ogun state government over non-payment of the workers’ 40 percent peculiar allowance.
In a statement on Sunday, the union said the necessary documents requested by the Ogun Government concerning their demands, had been forwarded since Friday, March 8, to Gov. Dapo Abiodun.
