Went to the high court registry this morning to file a motion. I wz told judiciary is on strike. Na game of thrones sure pass nw

We in Rivers State have been on strike for a month now. At first the issue was security of jusun members, then it shifted to issues of salaries and withdrawal of memos to sack staff for showing allegiance then it shifted again to the issue of the settling lingering crises in the judiciary.
The police have said they have secured all the courts. Jusun members have been paid their salaries. The "rift" btwn The exec and the judiciary is none of their business

High court ikeja under lock and key.
