Courts across the country on Tuesday were shut while judicial activities were paralysed following the strike by members of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria.
The Executive Order 10 which granted financial autonomy to the legislature and judiciary across the 36 states of the country was signed by the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari in May 2018.The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Ibrahim Muhammad, on Monday had a meeting with some JUSUN officials on ways to end the strike.
“Ordinarily, I would say let me talk to individual 36 state governors, which amount to asking for their favours. But, some of them would ask me to do 10 favours in return. This is why, as a judge, I am prohibited from asking for favour.” In Lagos, the union members stormed the premises of the Federal High Court in Lagos around 9am and sealed some of the offices and pasted notices indicating the commencement of the strike.
The autonomy of the Judiciary, jst like the LG, would benefit the masses more than its present status quo, who ever that is sitting on it/them is evil✌️
MBuhari has made life so difficult for Nigerians that even to drag him to court is now impossible.
