Abia State Government says it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Abia State Branch of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, in order to resolve the current industrial dispute.
A release endorsed by the Commissioner for Information, Prince Okey Kanu this Thursday (23/1/25) states that this follows the conclusion of negotiations between both parties.
According to the release, JUSUN will convene a congress as soon as possible to officially call off the strike.
It further adds that with the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between both parties, all differences in the implementation of the Consolidated Judicial Salary Structure (CONJUSS) have been resolved.
The release also assures that the additional amount to be paid to JUSUN is being processed for remittance by the State Government.
It therefore expects that the ongoing strike action be called off immediately to pave the way for the reopening of our courts.
However, the State Executive of JUSUN is yet to issue any statement or react to the development.
