Taraba JACTI accuses Taraba govt of failing to address workers' demands

The Joint Action Committee of Tertiary Institutions, JACTI, Taraba State, has announced that its two-week warning strike remains ongoing, accusing the state government of failing to take concrete steps towards addressing the demands of workers in the affected institutions.

In Bulletin No. 4, dated November 8, 2026, the committee reaffirmed that the industrial action, which commenced at 11:59 p.m. on November 4, 2026, would continue as scheduled.

Signed by the Bulletin Committee of JACTI, Taraba State, it expressed dissatisfaction with what it described as the Taraba State Government’s failure to take concrete action to address the legitimate demands of staff of the affected tertiary institutions.

Consequently, the committee directed all members to fully comply with the strike directives and refrain from performing official duties throughout the period of the industrial action.

“We urge members to remain united, disciplined and law-abiding while awaiting further directives from the JACTI leadership,” the committee stated.

The committee further cautioned members against actions capable of undermining the collective decision of the unions, stressing that unity and solidarity remain crucial to achieving their demands.
