The chairman of the state chapter of PASAN, Bashir Yahaya, confirmed the closure of the Assembly while speaking to newsmen on Monday.

He explained that, the strike is over the failure of the state government to implement financial autonomy for its legislative arm.

                         “Yes, we have joined the strike as directed by the national president of our association."

Bashir explained that, the strike followed the expiration of an ultimatum the union gave to the government to implement financial autonomy for the legislature.

The PASAN chairman pointed out that, the union was patient for two years, after President Muhammadu Buhari signed the Financial Autonomy Act, but state governors have failed to implement it.

He said the association would continue the strike until their demands were met.

Bashir hinted maintained that, the state Assembly would remain closed until there is a counter directive from the national body.
