The Kwara State branch of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN), on Wednesday continued the strike embarked upon to press for the actualisation of judicial autonomy.
There was a gridlock around the state judiciary complex as the executives of JUSUN blocked all entrances to courts to enforce the industrial action.

They hold that What is happening now is the quest to have true judicial autonomy saying that the president has approved, in the executive order number 10, stating that autonomy should be given to state judiciaries.
However since the order was given, nothing has changed and they now believe the only way to get government to listen is if they embark on industrial action.
