The strike by the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria took a worsening dimension on Friday with the organisation calling on members nationwide to continue with the industrial action. JUSUN said the directive followed the collapse of negotiations on the way forward out of the trade dispute. The directive, which was contained in a circular signed by the Deputy National Secretary of JUSUN, P. Nnamani, issued on April 16 and addressed to its National Executive Council and all members nationwide, was obtained by journalists on Friday. The union expressed the appreciation of its National Chairman, Marwan Adamu, to members for their spirit of solidarity and comradeship exhibited in the industrial action. We are aware of the threats and pressure that may come from the ‘governors’ but please be resolute.
