Workers at the Police Service Commission (PSC) have began an indefinite strike over an alleged breach of agreement.
The union announced on Thursday that the strike will take effect from next Monday.
Chairman of the Joint Service Union, PSC chapter, Adoyi Adoyi, disclosed this development to the press.
The industrial action is coming amidst disagreement between workers of the commission; the Chairman of the commission, Musiliu Smith; and the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Usman Baba Alkali, on which body should be responsible for recruitment, promotion, and appointment of constables and officers.
“As a responsible union, we make bold to state that all the conditions necessary for continuous working harmony have been breached by the management, hence our resort to continue with our agitation until our earlier agreements are fully implemented.
“Following from the above, therefore, the union and the entire staff do hereby serve a notice of indefinite strike to the Management, beginning on Monday, 29 August 2022,” Adoyi said.
