NLC President Joe Ajaero’s Shocking Arrest: A Dark Twist in Nigeria’s Labour Saga
In a stunning turn of events, the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, was arrested by the Department of State for Security (DSS) at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja on Monday. Ajaero was en route to the United Kingdom for an official assignment, but his journey was abruptly halted by the DSS.
This incident comes on the heels of Ajaero’s recent encounter with the police, who invited him for questioning over alleged terrorism financing. The NLC president had honored the invitation, but it seems that was not the end of his troubles.
The labour movement is now in an uproar, with many questioning the motives behind Ajaero’s arrest. The NLC has expressed its concern, stating that it does not know where Ajaero has been taken. This development has sparked fears about the safety and freedom of labour leaders in Nigeria.
As the situation unfolds, one thing is clear: Ajaero’s arrest has cast a dark shadow over the labour movement in Nigeria. Will this event silence the voices of labour leaders, or will it galvanize them to fight for their rights even more? Only time will tell.
