JUSUN Treasurer, Jimoh Alonge, spoke on Wednesday while featuring on PUNCH Online interview programme, The Roundtable. “Judges are paid from NJC but other judicial workers are at the mercy of the governors which is not supposed to be so,” Alonge stated. According to Alonge, Ondo, Edo, Ebonyi, and Jigawa States have been withholding judicial workers’ salaries for more than eight months now for demanding judicial autonomy. The JUSUN official, therefore, vowed that the judicial workers are resolute and are going to continue the strike until the day they pay those monies to NJC account. It is not true that Lagos is complying with judicial autonomy.
