  "summary": "The Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG) has announced that the ongoing strike by court workers will continue until the government meets revised demands concerning their 2026 conditions of service. General Secretary Abdulai Yakubu stated that JUSAG has scaled back its original demands in an effort to reach a deal with the government, describing the revised package as the association's final compromise. Despite a Finance Ministry proposal to pay 10 months of 2026 salary arrears in two instalments, JUSAG insists that this offer only meets less than 20% of their demands. The strike, which began on November 2, has resulted in court registries being closed across Ghana, causing disruptions for litigants and hearings, including a case involving a patient seeking a court attestation for a kidney transplant.",
