Nasarawa Judiciary Workers Launch Indefinite Strike Over Unmet Demands

The Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria in Nasarawa State declared an indefinite strike after the government failed to implement its demands. The move suspends court operations, halting the processing of cases and delaying justice for litigants. The union’s action follows months of negotiations that ended without a resolution, prompting workers to walk out of their posts. The strike is expected to disrupt the state’s judicial calendar, affecting both civil and criminal proceedings. Local authorities have urged the union to return to the negotiating table, while the government has yet to respond with a concrete plan to address the grievances. The situation remains fluid, with the potential for extended disruption if a settlement is not reached.
