The Ondo State chapter of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) has officially commenced an indefinite strike, citing the state government’s failure to implement financial autonomy for the judiciary.
This announcement was made on Friday in Akure by the union’s State Secretary, Kehinde Alade, through an official statement.
The statement read: “I hereby notify you that we will commence our planned industrial action starting today, June 13, 2025.
“This decision follows the expiration of the seven-day ultimatum issued to the Government of Ondo State on June 4, 2025.
“We perceived the lack of response from the government to address the reneged parts of the agreements outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed on May 20, 2015.
“This MoU contains the release of funds to the Ondo State Judiciary by the state government in line with judiciary financial autonomy.
“We, therefore, direct all our members to stay off duty starting from today, June 13, 2025, till further directive, and to adhere strictly to the industrial action guidelines.”
The union emphasized that the government’s ongoing refusal to honor the terms of the MoU has had negative repercussions on judicial staff. It called on the state authorities to act promptly by fulfilling the terms of the agreement to prevent escalation of the crisis.
