The police have again invited the president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) Joe Ajaero for questioning.
The invitation letter dated August 28, 2024, comes a day after Ajaero honoured the earlier invitation at the Force Headquarters Abuja.
The letter signed by commissioner of police Rufus Alajide for Deputy Inspector General of Police at Force Intelligence Department also asked the NLC secretary general Emmanuel Ugboaja to come along.
The letter read, “In furtherance of investigations into the alleged case of Criminal Intimidation, Conducts Likely to Cause Breach of Public Peace and Malicious Damage to Properties in which your name featured.
“You are requested to come along with Comrade Emmanuel Ugboaja for an interview with the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Force intelligence Department (FID) through the undersigned, at SPO’s Room 12, 2nd Floor, Force Intelligence Department (FID) Complex, Shehu hagari way, opposite Force Headquarters Area 11, Garki, Abuja on Thursday, 5th September, 2024 at 11am.
“On arrival, you may wish to call Mr. Usman on GSM number 08039659139. Your cooperation in this regard is highly solicited, please.”
Ajaero was earlier invited by the Office of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Intelligence Response Team (IRT), over allegations of “criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, treasonable felony, subversion, and cybercrime.”
He reported at the Force Headquarters in Abuja on Thursday morning accompanied by human rights lawyer Femi Falana and others.
After meeting with the police, Ajaero returned to the NLC headquarters where he told a crowd of NLC members that the union would not be intimidated.
