Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has warned that the state government will no longer pay salaries of the state’s chapter of Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria if it fails to call off its strike by the end of May.
He explained that the state was not unaware of the agreement among the Federal Government, the Governors Forum and JUSUN on the implementation of financial autonomy for the judiciary and legislative branches across the country. He also castigated International Federation of Women Lawyers for making ‘misguided noises’ on gender equality because a woman was not recommended by the National Judicial Council to succeed Justice Adama Iyayi-Lamikanra.
“And no one could have convinced the State Judicial Service Commission to recommend for appointment as a chief judge a judicial officer who had promised to work with the political opposition to make the upcoming political transition process very turbulent and difficult for the state.” In her remarks, Justice Iyayi-Lamikanra said she would eternally be grateful to Wike, who made it possible for her to emerge as the 8th Chief Judge of the state despite being a non-indigene.
Lol. If they truly have financial autonomy, why threaten them with 'no work, no pay'? Or the financial autonomy does not cover them handling their own salary?
