Ondo State Judiciary Paralyzed as Governor Aiyedatiwa Faces Criticism Over Poor Welfare, Financial Autonomy Issues; JUSUN Joins Strike Shutting Courts in Akure
The Ondo State judiciary has been brought to a standstill following a strike by magistrates, presidents of Grade ‘A’ customary courts, and legal research officers, citing poor welfare conditions, unfulfilled promises, and the refusal of financial autonomy under Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
The strike escalated when judiciary workers locked judges out of court facilities in Akure, shutting down the Ondo State Judiciary Headquarters. The Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) subsequently joined the industrial action, further crippling court operations across the state.
Sources revealed that many magistrates face severe hardships, including inadequate clothing, lack of official vehicles, and difficulty meeting basic daily needs. The strike highlights the pressing demand for improved welfare, autonomy, and government accountability to uphold the independence and dignity of Ondo State’s judiciary.
