The strike by the Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG) has begun, disrupting activities at several court premises across the country as staff demand payment of outstanding salary arrears.
The Supreme Court, Court of Appeal, Accra Circuit Court and some District Court offices have been locked, with security personnel restricting access to the premises.
Checks by Citi News indicate that security officers have been instructed not to open the gates, leaving some court facilities inaccessible.
At some entrances, red cloth has been tied to signal the association’s concerns and draw attention to the industrial action.
JUSAG is embarking on the strike to demand payment of revised salary arrears dating back to January 2026.
The industrial action has affected operations at several court locations, raising concerns about disruptions to court-related services and proceedings.
Meanwhile, Judicial Secretary Musah Ahmed has appealed to the association to suspend the strike.
Mr Ahmed said management had engaged in high-level, good-faith negotiations with relevant government stakeholders in an effort to resolve the outstanding issues.
His appeal comes as the industrial action continues, with court activities affected at several premises.
The duration of the strike and the outcome of ongoing engagements between JUSAG, Judicial Service management and government stakeholders remain uncertain.
