JUSAG strike shuts Supreme Court, Court of Appeal, other courts

The strike by the Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG) has begun, disrupting activities at several court premises across the country.

The Supreme Court, Court of Appeal, Accra Circuit Court and some District Court offices have been locked, with security personnel restricting access to the premises.

Checks by Citi  News indicate that security officers have been instructed not to open the gates.

At some court entrances, red cloth has been tied to signal the association’s concerns and draw attention to the industrial action.

Meanwhile, Judicial Secretary Musah Ahmed has appealed to the association to call off the strike.

Ahmed said management had engaged in high-level, good-faith negotiations with relevant  government stakeholders to resolve the outstanding issues.
