From Wednesday, the activities of the elections petition tribunals across Nigeria will go aground, as the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) has decided to join the strike declared by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on Wednesday.
The decision is contained in a circular signed on behalf of the General Secretary of JUSUN, by M. J. Akwashiki, dated June 5, and addressed to the Deputy President, all Vice Presidents, all branches and chapters of JUSUN.
The circular directed all zonal vice presidents to coordinate their zones by ensuring that branches and chapters chairmen mobilise their members for total compliances.
“I bring you fraternal greetings from the leadership of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUsUN).
“This is to inform all branches and chapters of our great union across Nigeria to begin mobilisation for a nationwide action and withdrawal of service which would commence on Wednesday 7th June 2023.
“This followed a decision of the National Executive Councit (NEC) of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) at her meeting on 2rd June, 2023 over the increase in the pump price of Petroleum Motor Spirit (PMS) by the Federal Government through NNPCL.
“All zonal vice presidents are to coordinate their zones by ensuring that Branch and chapters chairmen mobilise their members for total compliances.
“Also note that the nationwide action commences on Wednesday 7th, June 2023,” the circular reads.
