Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has appealed to the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, to call off their strike and give state Governors opportunity to perfect implementation plan on their demand for financial autonomy.
Governor Abiodun made the plea while playing host to the leaders of the State branches of Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, led by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr Afolabi Fashanu in his Abeokuta, Oke Mosan office.
Governor Abiodun who said that his administration supported the need for separation of powers, especially in the presidential system of government, pointed out that Nigeria Governors’ Forum was taking steps to resolve all the grey areas.
Responding, the leader of the NBA team, Mr Fashanu said his team would deploy moral persuasion and dialogue with JUSUN on the need to end the strike in the interest of justice and democracy.
It would be recalled that members of JUSUN embarked on an indefinite strike across country on April 6, 2021 to enforce financial autonomy for the judiciary arm of government as granted by the Nigerian Constitution.
