Enugu Law Officers Launch 7-Day Strike Over Pay Issues
On October 2, 2026, Enugu law officers initiated a 7-day warning strike due to the government's failure to address grievances related to poor remuneration and welfare packages. The strike was announced in a statement signed by the association's chairman, Comrade K.P.
Onyia, and secretary, Comrade M.O. Onyeze.
The law officers expressed that their demands include the full harmonization of their remuneration with that of magistrates, payment of Bar Practising Fees and annual Bar Conference fees, and restoration of allowances such as transportation, hazard, and wardrobe allowances, including arrears. The strike commenced at midnight and prohibits law officers from performing official duties in Abuja or Lagos Liaison Offices, the Government House, or any Ministry, Department, or Agency.
The association hopes that this warning strike will prompt the authorities to address their demands and prevent further industrial actions.
