South Sudan judges said their nationwide strike is still active and vowed not to relent on their demand for the resignation of Chief Justice Chan Reech Madut and wages increments. Speaking to reporters on Saturday, chairperson of the South Sudanese judges’ committee, Khalid Mohammed Abdullah said they are still continuing with their strike across the country. In statement released on 21 April, the judges call for better working conditions, increased salaries and the reinstatement of leave benefits. The assembly of judges also demanded the removal of Chief Justice from his position. Chief Justice is appointed by President Kiir and it remains unclear if he will issue a decision to find solutions to the ongoing strike. -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/southsudankob View this message at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/southsudankob/topic-id/message-id For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
