Legal activities in Kano State may face major disruptions as law officers working with the Kano State Ministry of Justice have embarked on an indefinite strike.
The action follows unresolved welfare concerns between the officers and the state government.
Members of the Association of Kano State Law Officers announced the industrial action after negotiations with the Kano State Government reportedly failed to address their long-standing demands.
The law officers say their grievances include poor welfare conditions, delays in the payment of allowances, and the need for a review of their salary structure.
They are also demanding the implementation of previously agreed benefits and improved career progression within the state justice system.
The strike is expected to affect several legal processes, including criminal prosecutions, legal advisory services to government ministries, and the state’s representation in court.
