According to the letter, “you may wish to recall that the Joint Union Congress of the Police Service Commission had embarked on a 3-day warning strike on Monday 24 January, 2022, which was suspended in national interest in order to embrace dialogue and reconciliation.

“As a responsible union, we make bold to state that all the conditions necessary for continuous working harmony have been breached by the management, hence our resort to continue with our agitation until our earlier agreements are fully implemented.”

However, efforts by our correspondent to seek the commission on the development proved abortive as none of the officials approached was willing to comment on the matter.

Also, calls and WhatsApp messages put across to the Spokesperson of the commission, Mr Ikechukwu Ani, were not replied as at the press time.
