In solidarity with its President, Comrade Joe Ajaero, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), has mobilised its members, especially the Central Working Committee (CWC), to storm the Police headquarters in Abuja, as Ajaero honours the summons by the Police over his alleged link to terrorism financing, among other allegations.
Recall that the police summoned the NLC President on Monday, August 19, to appear at the Force headquarters yesterday, by 10 a.m., to answer questions on his alleged involvement in terrorism financing, cybercrime, subversion, criminal conspiracy, and treasonable felony.
The summons necessitated an emergency National Executive Council meeting, where the Congress condemned the action, describing the allegation as trumped-up charges and politically motivated to silence the workforce.
According to a circular to all NLC affiliates and State Councils, signed by the General Secretary, Comrade Emmanuel Ugboaja, on mobilisation for peaceful procession and prayer session in solidarity with the Congress President, Comrade Ajaero, the labour union noted that together they will overcome the challenges and continue to uphold justice, fairness, and democracy in the country.
