Members of the Kano State Chapter of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria have shut down the state House Assembly as they joined a nationwide strike declared by the union’s national body.
The Independent Mirror reported that chairman of the state chapter of PASAN, Bashir Yahaya, confirmed the closure of the Assembly this morning while speaking to newsmen.
He explained that the strike is over the failure of the state government to implement financial autonomy for its legislative arm.
He said the association would continue the strike until their demands were met, adding that the state Assembly would remain closed until there is a counter directive from the national body.
