Awka—Anambra State branch of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, has resumed its suspended strike today, following the state government’s non- implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding, MoU, the union signed with it in March this year.
JUSUN members took the decision last week with the workers accusing the state government of taking them for a ride by failing to keep its side of the bargain.
The MoU, which was signed between government and JUSUN officials on March 20, 2015, before the strike was called off, provided that henceforth, money for salaries, overheads and capital projects should be paid into the account of the judiciary in line with its new financial autonomy status.
But they regretted that rather than implement the agreement, the workers were yet to receive their April 2015 salary and that nobody had told them when it would be paid.
