The Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, JUSUN, has suspended its nationwide strike, effective from Monday.
The decision was taken at its National Executive Council, NEC, meeting on Tuesday in Abuja.
It announced the suspension of the strike in a communique issued at the end of the NEC meeting on Wednesday.
JUSUN cited the intervention of the National Judicial Council (NJC) and other stakeholders in reaching the decision to suspend the strike.
“NEC-in-session discussed extensively and after putting so many issues into consideration i.e. the intervention of the NJC and other stakeholders, the NEC has resolved that the strike is hereby suspended,” the signed by the union’s Deputy President, Emmanuel Abioye, and General Secretary, Isiah Adetola, read in part.
JUSUN had convened the NEC meeting following an appeal by the National Judicial Council (NJC) to the union to call off the nationwide strike in the interest of the nation.
The NJC led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Tanko Muhammed, had made the appeal to the union at a meeting earlier on Tuesday.
