  "summary": "The General Secretary of the Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG), Abdulai Yakubu, has welcomed the government's proposal to pay 10 months of salary arrears owed to its members. However, Yakubu insists that this is not the main issue behind the ongoing strike, which is centered around the approval and implementation of the revised conditions of service recommended by the Judicial Council. The 10 months of arrears arose from the delay in reviewing salaries for 2026, and while the Ministry of Finance's proposal to pay these arrears is seen as a positive step, Yakubu maintains that the core issue remains the substantive approval of the revised conditions of service. Negotiations are ongoing between JUSAG, Judicial Service management, the Ministry of Labour, and the Attorney General's Department to find a lasting resolution to the strike.",
