In spite of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC)’s strike, court activities at the Federal High Court (FHC), Abuja are going on smoothly.

A check by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) showed that judges, staff, lawyers and litigants in the high-rise building were doing their own business without hindrance.

From the 1st floor to the 5th floor that housed the 13 courts in the building, NAN observed that no fewer than eight courts were sitting.

It would also be recalled that court activities went on unchecked on Tuesday.

However, a notice of congress meeting by the FHC’s chapter of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) signed by its Public Relations Officer, G.A. Maku, said there would be an emergency meeting of all staff at 11am today.

It reads: “All members of staff are expected to converge at Ukeje Hall @11am this morning for an emergency meeting.

“This meeting is noteworthy as members will be briefed on the position of the union with regards to the ongoing NLC strike action and other important issues please.” (NAN)
