Osun Judiciary Workers Picket Chief Judge’s Office

The office of the State Chief Justice in Osun State has been picketed by the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN).

Reports obtained by Naija News on Monday morning noted that the action is a show of solidarity with JUSUN members who claim to have faced persecution under the embattled Chief Judge, Justice Oyebola Adepele Ojo.

The Chairman of Osun JUSUN, Oluwagbemiga Olakunle Eludire, emphasized, while addressing journalists on Monday at the premises of the Osun State High Court, which houses the office of the Chief Judge, that their demands were distinct from those of the state government.

“We demanded from Justice Ojo why our wardrobe allowance from 2021 till date has not been released despite funding by the state government.

“We want to know why the government directive on promotion and advancement made available by the Osun government was not used for the purpose approved for.

“We want to know why notable JUSUN members were unlawfully suspended without proper investigation against public service rules.

“We will not back down until appropriate action is taken on the matter,” Daily Post quoted Eludire as saying.
