Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State has approved 75 percent of the demands put forward by the state’s lawyers’ association following their recent industrial action.
The decision is part of the government’s broader efforts to address challenges within the judiciary sector and improve the welfare and working conditions of government-employed legal practitioners.
As part of the measures, the governor also directed the immediate payment of two months’ outstanding salaries owed to newly recruited lawyers who are yet to receive their entitlements.
The directive was disclosed by the Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, Ibrahim Abdullahi Waiya, in a statement made available to ‘The Historica Nigeria‘.

The resolution is expected to bring the industrial action to an end and pave the way for the full resumption of legal and judicial activities across the state.
