Honestly, the situation is pretty frustrating for a lot of workers from what I can tell. The main reason Nigerian judiciary workers are going along with the JUSUN strike is because the government just hasn't been paying attention or respecting their previous agreements. They've owed judiciary staff five months of wages, haven't upped the minimum wage, and also failed to implement some promised salary increases. That's a lot of promises with zero follow through, which is totally messed up if you ask me.
What's weird is, not every judicial chapter is on board, like the Supreme Court group. They think it's better to keep talking to the Chief Justice who says he’s fixing things. But regular courts feel like nobody's listening to them unless something big like a strike happens.
I've seen strikes work when people stick together—otherwise, it just drags on and nothing changes. So, most judiciary workers are joining up with JUSUN’s strike, hoping that shutting down courts will finally get the government to pay attention and sort their salaries out. I get it, honestly, sometimes you gotta make some noise to see results. Good on them for demanding fair treatment!
