Parliamentary staff in Nasarawa to resume June 15
The leadership of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), Nasarawa State House of Assembly, has called on its members to resume work on June 15.
This followed the suspension of the strike embarked upon by the national leadership of the union over financial autonomy.
The state chairman of PASAN, Dauda Nuhu, and the treasurer, Yusuf Kasim, gave the directive while addressing newsmen in Lafia on Sunday.
They said the resumption was in line with directives from the national leadership.
They appreciated all their members for their support and understanding throughout the strike period, adding that the struggle for financial autonomy has reached an advanced stage.
The leaders added that an agreement of understanding had been reached by their leaders at the national level.
They also disclosed that Nasarawa State House of Assembly had no issues in terms of the requirement for the implementation.
They said the assembly had passed its funds’ management bill and its assembly service commission is fully in place.
They further used the medium to appeal to other state assemblies who are yet to pass their funds’ management bill to do so immediately.
On June 11, PASAN suspended its 45-day old strike to allow for the implementation of the Memorandum of Action.
