Osun Judicial Strike: Governor Adeleke Sets Up Resolution Committee

● Writes AG, CJN

● Gives 7-Day Ultimatum

NEWS RELEASE

OSOGBO-11/02/2024- Osunstate.gov.ng

Worried by protracted strike action by the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, Governor Ademola Adeleke has set up a seven man committee to urgently resolve the industrial dispute.

The Governor is also sending a briefing letter to the Attorney General of the Federation and the Chief Justice of Nigeria, calling for support to resolve the industrial dispute.

The Governor in the letters briefed the top judicial officials on his efforts so far to get the crisis resolved despite the fact that the bone of contention is pure judicial staff matters.

The Committee led by the Secretary to the State Government, Hon Teslim Igbalaye is to find a lasting solution to the crisis within the judiciary within seven days, Mr Governor further directed.

The new intervention by Governor Adeleke followed his previous efforts which include payment of withheld salaries of some judicial staff, negotiation on wardrobe allowances and recent hosting of the national leadership of the judicial staff union.

Governor Adeleke said he is setting up the committee with a direct mandate to get this dispute resolved whatever it will take, noting that his action is to restore normalcy and not to interfere in the judicial arm of government.

“ We are being careful all along not to be accused of meddling in judicial matters. But it is now almost an emergency. We must get the issues ironed out.

“ I told the national leadership of JUSUN to mediate. I am also reaching out to the Attorney General and the Chief Justice. We need to get our courts running for regular dispensation of justice”, the Governor was quoted as saying.

Signed:
Mallam Olawale Rasheed,
Spokesperson to the State Governor
