Following the arrest of the national president of the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, Joe Ajaero, the union has placed all Nigerians workers and affiliated unions on red alert.
It was earlier reported that operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, arrested Ajaero on Monday morning.
He was picked up at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, while boarding a flight to the United Kingdom, UK, for an official assignment when DSS operatives picked him up.
In a post on its official X handle, NLC demanded immediate release of its national president.
“We demand the immediate and unconditional release of Congress President, Comrade Joe Ajaero,” it wrote.
The union further urged “all affiliate unions, state councils, civil society allies and all patriotic Nigerians should be on red alert”.
DAILY POST recalls that the NLC president was recently invited by the Nigeria Police Force for questioning over alleged link to terrorism financing and other related offences.
The union, after the invitation, vowed to shut down the nation’s economy if Ajaero is arrested.
