The entrance to the Osun State High Court in Osogbo has been locked by members of the Judiciary Staff Union in Osun State on Monday in protest against the Chief Judge, Justice Oyebola Adepele Ojo, and the management on the activities of the judiciary in the state.
The protesting workers led by Mr. Gbenga Eludire, on Monday, Osun Defender gathered, prevented movement in and out of the premises.
It would be recalled that Justice Adepele-Ojo was last week Thursday, asked to step aside by the state House of Assembly pending investigations on allegations of corruption, gross-misconduct and abuse of office.
Armed with placards with inscriptions such as ‘Judiciary staff deserves better,’ ‘We are tired of oppression and stagnation,’ and ‘Unlawful suspension of Judiciary staff without recourse to Judicial Service Commission is barbaric,’ among others, the workers accused Adepele-Ojo of refusal to pay wardrobe allowances of workers and other emoluments in the last three years.
Details later.
